A realization while walking around and shooting some high contrast black and white photos of the snow in the streets:

This looks like calligraphy to me.

Which makes me think:

In order to improve and augment our creative vision for photography, is studying calligraphy a great idea?

I think so!

Cross-pollinate all day.

Study more calligraphy, make more calligraphs, and keep making more abstract black and white images!

The wider you can cross pollinate your creativity, the more you can evolve, grow and elevate yourself as an artist!
