Thank you to 
@jamtaylor for Guest Judging this week's Contest!
@jamtaylor for Guest Judging this week's Contest!and a BIG THANK YOU to everyone that participated!
========================================
It has been shown time and time again that Steemit has attracted some amazing photographers, and we all hope it will continue to do so. The contest hosted by 
@daveks has proven to bring out some of the best black and white photos across a range of themes and it was a pleasure to go through them, as many know that I am a big fan of B&W. Still, it was difficult to make selections from all the great stuff being entered. As always, art is subjective - these are the ones that stood out to me the most. Thanks for the opportunity as a guest judge and I hope everyone enjoys this selection.
