We’ve just announce this week’s Assignment over on the Forums – it’s Black and White.

Black and White photography has seen something of a resurgence over the past few months (did it ever really go away) – with it getting a lot of attention in the digital photography magazines, books, photoblogs and web sites/blogs that I follow.

Perhaps it’s about getting back to basics – or perhaps people are just continuing to fall in love with the mood and atmosphere that black and white shots evoke.

What ever it is – we’d love to see your handy work in the Black and White Assignment this week so head over and post an image or two both from your archives but also put a little time aside this week to do some black and white experimentations.

Stay tuned over the next week for a couple of black and white posts here on the blog.

PS: Happy Valentines Day – I hope the picture (left) fits with both the assignment and the theme of the day!
