40 Classic Black and White Photos

January 2, 2011 By Scott 17 Comments

Every so often we hope to do a shout out via twitter for photos on a particular theme. Unlike the monthly themes the shout outs will be the cliche photos we all take with the view of looking how we approach the topic.

This week’s shout out was simply “Black and White” resulting in a flurry of photos being added to the Seven by Five Flickr Group.

Here is a selection of forty classic black and white photographs as submitted by you to the Seven by Five Flick Group. As usual click on a photo to comment directly on flickr.

    Rich, I was going to keep the monthly theme and then do twitter shout outs through the month rather than every week ?

    They are stunning and one could not possibly choose between them. I’m a rail man so trains are high up in the list.

    Elephant Rock shouts to me and one must mention the shots by Image Matters otherwise he might not show for work next week – Ange a photographic star!!! Well done David!

    Thanks for the very kind words Steve and yes there is a great selection on here!!! I think that little shoes by antje b is the one for me – great tonal range and warmth reminds me of film days David
