OK. I admit it. I’ve been a little obsessed with black and white photography of late. It’s a bit strange since I love bright bold colors so much. However, right now I’m really digging the crisp contrast and non-distracting detail that black and white excels in. I’ll come back to full color, but for now I’m enjoying rolling around in desaturated decadence.

What about you – have you ever strayed from your “norm” to discover some new delightful thing?

Companion: It sounds like squirrels.

Doctor (pausing to listen): No…. Sounds more scaly. Probably wee bitty dinosaurs… or wee bitty dragons… hard to tell, really. Most definitely one or the other.
