FRIED

There are a lot of reasons not to eat fried foods on a regular basis.  You’ve heard most of them: blood pressure, heart disease, vitamin deficiency.  Blah, blah, blah. You already know all of the logical reasons.  So, let me proffer that fried food is the culinary equivalent of institutional gray.  Do you really enjoy a plate of brown and beige food that all basically tastes beige?  I hate to misappropriate the Skittles slogan, but taste the rainbow people.  This next Call is the best reason to appreciate gray, but walk away from the beige, folks…

Check out this Call for Entries for Grayscale from the Kiernan Gallery (Lexington, Virginia). The entry fee is very reasonable, and the theme is a classic. Take a look…

Artists working in black and white eliminate the complexities of color to accentuate form, composition, and lighting. The world desaturated is in some ways made more vivid. For Grayscale, The Kiernan gallery seeks photographs of any subject matter that use and celebrate the vibrancy of monochrome.
