Here’s a list of 33 stunning examples of black and white portraiture.  I don’t know anyone who doesn’t love the beauty of b&w photography.   I think the absence of color and the stark contrast of the blacks and whites really bring the subject matter to the forefront of the captured images.  The contrast really stands out on the subjects eyes.  I think that’s the first thing I notice in portraits, the lighting highlights in the eyes.  Anyway, this was a fun post… hope you enjoy!
