WePhoto - 2016 - B&W - Vol 2
WePhoto “The Series” B&W Dear all, I am very proud to introduce the new collection “The Series”. It was not so long ago since we have launched the first eBook, including the photographic work of the 10 administrators, who at that time were cooperating in the “WePhoto” group. Since then, we have published 21 eBooks and the Special edition “Calendar 2015” and now two Calendars 2016. This new collection – The Series - is made of different eBooks, each one (or more than one if required) related to a specific photographic theme, including the artworks of several authors from Italy and abroad. This is the second eBook of the fourth line of this new collection and has been dedicated to Black and White.
We are all so excited and happy to be able to collect such beautiful images and, most of all to be able to share them with a wide audience. Spread, share, recommend everyone to download eBooks from our webpages and links below. Also make sure to leave your feedback on the eStores – 5 stars comments would be great. RATE IT! You can really help us growing and sharing our beloved passion for photography! In this eBook you can also find the links to our Facebook Group. Come and join, invite friends to share and enjoy some of the best images from around the world!

Black And White L’inizio. Le prime immagini fotografiche, come quelle cinematografiche, furono in Bianco e nero. Prima ancora che esistessero fotocamere “personali” I Fotografi erano quasi degli EROI. Portando in giro attrezzature ora impensabili, hanno svelato un mondo a tutti irraggiungibile, con le loto fotocamere pesanti, ingombranti, con lastre di vetro, su cui doveva essere stesa a mano una gelatina di bromuro d’argento, sviluppata subito dopo lo scatto. Ora, con le nostre Reflex, andiamo comodamente in giro e scattiamo stupende immagini a colori. Eppure, anora oggi, molti eliminano le informazioni-colore per ridare, con il Bianco e Nero, un’atmosfera di stupenda irrealtà alle proprie immagini. Un fascino che il tempo non potrà mai modificare.
Black And White The beginning. The first photographic images were black and white. Before there were "personal" cameras, the photographers were almost HEROES. Bringing around their equipment now unthinkable, they have unveiled a world unreachable to all, with their heavy cameras, bulky, with glass plates on which was to be laid by hand a gelatin silver bromide, to be developed immediately after the shooting. Now, with our Reflex we go around and we take beautiful color pictures. Yet, even today, many photographers eliminate color information to give back, with Black and White, the wonderful atmosphere of unreality to their images. A charm that time will never change. Mario Buncuga January 2016

La fotografia per me è passione,
un misto di
scienza e arte che crea una magia: ogni immagine è una misteriosa parte di un qualcosa non ancora rivelato. La fotografia in bianco e nero è pura concentrazione, nel bianco e nero suggerisco, nel colore affermo. Photography for me is a passion, a mixture of science and art that creates magic: each image is a mysterious part of something not yet revealed. Black and white photography is pure concentration, in black and white I suggest, in color I state. 9

And the photograph , especially in this case , is an incredible tool of transmission of knowledge and historical record for future generations .He loves to focus on the portrait , in its most classic , but also spontaneous , trying to capture the beauty , the emotions , beyond the simple appearance . 21

Michele
Michele Cuciniello Latina, Italy Having an avid passion of photography since my teenage years. I started taking photographs with my father's old camera, then passing to an analogue camera and my passion developing. My first shots can be summed up as a huge frenetic desire to capture everything that was presented infront of the camera. I went through a long period of "darkness" where I had put the camera in a drawer, but never abandoning the world of photoghraphy. Looking on the web for great operas by great masters, to study and to continue to improve my creativity. For several years thanks to purchasing a reflex digital, I began to take pictures again and therefore to live in what means the world to me the magic of photography. I do not know if anything has changed from my first convulsive jerks, but I think that now the experience of life, with the maturity of my years, combined with the never dormant passion for this wonderful art has enabled me to discover the world from different points of view. Increasing in me the a c h i e v e m e n t t h a t a g o o d p h o t o g r a p h
 can be hidden anywhere.

I started photography only for few years but I have a special passion in it. Street photography is also one of my favorite subjects. Street photography is said to be the relationship between human and the public place. Besides of that, I also like to use the light, pattern and interest in my street photos. The photos of this album are all shot from streets of Hong Kong. Hope you will enjoy them.' 45

Adolfo Carli of Milan. I've been an amateur photographer for several years. )I consider myself not specialized in any field of photography. I love traveling so, basically, my photos are a reportage photos. In my travels I always carry with me the tripode since I discovered that night pictures have a special charm. I love photographing people especially when engaged in their work. I don't like to film because In my opinion a single frame, if carefully observed, can tell a little story' 69
