…Or B&W.
Scott has set up his 24th assignment.
Most of us are using digital cameras today – I think, and therefore nearly all photos are shot in color.
But try and have a look with your ‘luminance’ eyes, and see if the colors really makes the photo better.
The images I print are roughly 50-50 color or B&W.
These pictures were made in B&W because the colors didn’t add to the experience.
First a picture from a place that’s very ‘hot’ these days. The columns around sct.Peters Church in the Vactican State.
Playing in the streets for a coin or two. I gave a few for the posing.
Two friends having a good time together in Rome.
One of my favourites, which some of you might have seen before. This is Black and White.
Wonderful images Carsten.
🙂
Your comments are always so positive. Thanks.
I really like these! Do you have a preference for taking B&W images?
Thanks Elisa.
No, I dont have preference for B&W, but sometimes I think that the colors disturbs the Picture.
These are incredibly beautiful — and I love that little boy marching beside the sailors!
I’m glad Scott’s assignment took me to your blog, so I could see these.
I’m glad you came by and commented.
The soldier shot with the little boy is wonderful!
Thanks Karma 🙂
You show us some very fine black&white photos – very different and illustrating the many possibilities in shooting without colors. Well done, Carsten. I hope you and your family is OK?
Mange tak Truels.
Jow da, vi har det fint; men har haft travlt med forskelligt.
Også gode ønsker for dig og dine.
So nice to see you back, Carsten ! Rome in B&W is just beautiful ! The first picture is excellent but so are the next ones too. I remember the sailors and the little boy… Great instant shots where B/W is perfect.
All the best to you and yours and wishing you a Happy Easter.
All the best to you Isabelle. May you have a good summer.
