You know when a photo is good when you can't stop staring at it and the more you stare at it, the more you like it.


click on photos for sources. 3rd photo by sally mann, just can't find her website to link to the direct source.
So timeless. Sigh.
P.S. Thanks for all the hair suggestions yesterday. Not one person said to cut my hair shorter :) I do think I'll be happier with longer hair. So much more versatile.

@fawn: I love Sally Mann's work too! I was first introduced to her work in my photo class last summer and I fell in love :)
I still haven't found my passion for b&w. I don't know why..
These are gorgeous though, but they don't light the same spark in me that color photograpy does!
I wish I appreciated b&w more, because I would love to shoot more b&w and develop them myself in a darkroom! It all takes practice, I guess.
Oohh, I do like b&w toooo!
you always have inspirational images on your blog, B&W is so elegant and cool, it really is timeless.
Oh dear, I'm completely in love with Sally Mann, I've wrote countless essays and projects on her whilst I was doing my art degree!
This is a lovely selection, really love the top one!
oooh, i love those!!
and hey, we've got the exact same number of subscribers! :)
love those photos, especially the third one!!!

Sally Mann is my favorite photographer EVER. In fact I recently posted that same picture (It's her daughter Jessie, and I think it's titled Candy Cigarette) on my blog. When I was in college (studying Creative Writing), my thesis was a collection of poems inspired by Sally Mann photographs. LOVE!
I love black and white photography! Great examples to show here. The black & white seem to bring out the moodiness in the images.

Sally Mann was a huge influence on me becoming a photographer. I could stare at her work for hours.
I love the Sally Mann photograph!!!! I am going to a gallery opening of some of her photos and she is going to be there, so I am so excited to meet her!
