It was Joel Sternfeld’s quote which inspired me to try this photograph in black and white.
Black and white is abstract; color is not. Looking at a black and white photograph, you are already looking at a strange world.
Posted as part of this week’s weekly photo challenge – Abstract where Ben Huberman asks us to find something new and mysterious in something familiar.
What a great quote, I really liked that and your picture.

the curves and texture are adding values to it. I guess it must be wood!
