    This shot is absolutely gorgeous. Once again, I love black and white. The contrast between her jewelry and skin is fabulous! One of the best shots I’ve seen to date on Afrosugar.

    Thank you Danielle. I agree, its definitely one of the more striking shots that I’ve come across. Color photos often just don’t have the drama and emotional impact of their B&W counterparts.
