I talked before about visualizing images, sometimes unintentionally, in black and white. Wednesday's photowalk was one of those times.
Though, I didn't turn on the (Fujifilm Acros) film siumulation. Rather, I photographed in RAW format because I wasn't sure that I wanted black and white photos.

There were spots of color around, including a great big, blue, open sky. Shades of green could be found not only in the trees, as leaves were coming in, but throughout the grasses along the trails. I love these colors.
I kept seeing these scenes in both color and black and white. And I had a difficult time deciding which was better. Until I realized: neither is better.
It was nice to be out, enjoying a very quiet and very calming walk through nature.
