I’ve struggled with color for several years now. I can be pretty slow on the uptake – try as I might I haven’t been able to get the same gut punch with color as I can with b/w, and I’ve quickly abandoned it.

It finally occurred to me that I won’t get the same punch with it and it’s an exercise in frustration to try. Color speaks in a different voice. It has a voice of it’s own, and if I let it be what it is, and let it speak in it’s own voice, I can get along with it just fine. It can even be pretty good.

Of course it helps to figure out how to tame it…
