A World in Black & White.


I came across many pictures lately in black & white. They are just so beautiful. I think the way a modern B&W picture works is that it gets rid of unwanted elements in a picture  as colors sometimes can be confusing and unnecessary. Black & White is simplistic and straight-to-the-point. It's full of emotions and capable of conveying message stronger. It trains the eyes, to stop indulging in the world of palettes, greedily wanting more and more. A loss of vividness at times is great, it makes me see more closely the stories behind. 

My pictures weren't shot at an aim to make it B&W, but I'm quite satisfied these turn out this way with post-processing. Hope you love them!  


As a site note, I have recently set up a Nuffnang account because I realized many Malaysian bloggers are using that. I guess it enhances the blog-surfing experience :) Follow me [here]!

London pictures up next. Happy Sunday! x

love, M

  4. I think that colors are a good way to express certain emotions yet black and white shows the potential of a photo without the distractions of colors - the viewer focusses on the composition, on the play of light and shadow and the contrast. That's why I admire people who are able to take such beautiful black and white photos just like you do. <3
