Photos Showing the Power of Black and White

The world as we see it is a humdrum of so many colors, we can even assign colors to our mood, and feelings. But, what if we only saw two shades? What was it just black and white? Yeah, it can't happen but let us try to look at the pictures from the point of view of a photographer who has captured a few intense moments of life using only two shades. Regardless of the camera movements and type of photography, several pictures today have one thing in common, and that is the way they are illustrated only in black and white. Why is it that we choose to leave behind so many shades and pick monochrome? How can subtracting the colors from a picture be much more meaningful and appealing? Because, when photography in black-and-white is done right it can capture a million emotions and strike the right cords in our heart. These pictures give the viewers the opportunity to add their own colors, view things the way they want to. It is up to you to decipher what you see in these colorless, yet full of life images. The photographer plays with your mind by broadening your perspective and giving you the necessary strength to understand what it says. From the piercing stare of a lion to the toothless smile of a child, black and white photography can capture all of it. Depending on the topic, subject, and thought a photographer could weave stories and sell magic to the viewers. Concentrate on the emotions, the mood, and intensity as you scroll through the 20 black and white pictures here. When you remove the color from the picture, you end up adding something new to it. So, open your mind and try to see beyond the horizon.
