The Light Obscure

About

Black, white, silver, gray - the peculiar beauty of monochrome.

The Light Obscure focuses, not just on black and white images, but on those images that show a unique transparency to the materiality of light and that exemplify the play of light and dark. Submissions are welcome.

Images collected here come from all over the web, and are reblogged in appreciation only. No copyright infringement is intended. If something of yours is here and is not credited properly, or if you'd like it taken down, just ask.
