Faces of Exit 270 Part 8

What can I say -the landscape of Exit 270 is the people I find occupying this space.  These faces are what give life to this exit.  I hope not to offend any of them by showing their images here.

The Light

The photographer, Robert Frank once said, “black and white is the color of photography.” Black and white photography is about contrast –but most of all it is about the light.  You only have to study the cinema of the 30’s and 40’s to see how directors creatively used light to tell the story and set the mood in B&W films.  It is the quality of the light that gives us the dramatic black and white images.  I have always preferred a cloudy day to a bright sunny day when it comes to black and white photography.
