As we are about to wrap up the current monthly photo challenge – simplify – I thought it might be inspirational, and keep you on track with this way of shooting to see some great examples.

Images that exemplify keeping it simple

As you look through the images below see if you notice a common thread among them? How many are black and white? Are they a lot of long exposures? Do you see more shot with a long lens or a wide one? How about depth of field, is it shallow or deep?
