I think this is the perfect quote to go with these very strong photos from 500px. Photography is the beauty of life, captured. – Tara Chisholm.

I could get lost for hours on end on this website which boasts to be the world’s best photography community.

Black and white, or monochromatic images. The lack of colour allows the subject matter to create atmosphere….

This series of photos titled ballerina in black and white by Rylee Hitchner is as delicate and beautiful as the subject matter. I love the softness and the grain in the image.

Do you pin?

I recently joined Pinterest, a virtual pinboard, to create a mood board for inspiration. There are so many beautiful images and products to discover! I’m finding other blogs that I never would have stumbled upon otherwise. I love Pinterest and I highly recommend that you check it out!

This is the board I created for my “kitchen inspiration”. I’m going to paint my kitchen very soon and add accessories. When I see an image I like on the internet, I “Pin” it. Now I know what to add to my shopping list, instead of wandering around the store aimlessly. I am on a mission now!

Here is a roundup of some stunning black and white photography that Lauren from ELLEBY DESIGN pinned. Her taste mirrors my own and thanks to Pinterest, I now follow her fabulous blog.
