“In the right light, at the right time, everything is extraordinary.”

—Aaron Rose   

Now sets the sun, sprinkling its glitter over the cool smooth waters and lending magic to an otherwise monochrome scene on a dismal, dreary day, void of sunshine and thus color, allowing only dark silhouettes to emerge as bold heroes. ♣

Visit my Lightscapes series to see more photographs where light and shadow etch a pattern. A Monochrome Moment in Maine was shot in color and edited for improved contrast and details, but not color-converted to black-and-white. Just looks that way, warm, rich, one of the many rewards given to photographers who pursue the craft in any light, bright or gray.

If you’re drawn to the light on overcast days, too, why so?
