You may wonder what any of these shots have in common. The post title kind of gives it away though. For some reason, black and white photo portray so much more for me. I love colour of course, but the lack of it is so much more intriguing, and it forces you to look beyond and into the picture as opposed to having the answer shoved in your face. I guess I find black and white photos more mysterious, they are just more elegant in a modestly subtle way.
