Edgar Allan Poe is one of my favourite authors of all time. I know the movie won’t live up to Poe’s tales of the macabre, but I’m going to see it anyway. Today’s images are inspired by the upcoming movie release of The Raven… dark and eerie… depth and contrast.

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

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.
