When the colorful and real world is captured in a black and white photograph, a new image appears. Sometimes a new context is born. The harmony between just black and white can, at times, surpass reality in its eloquence and truthfulness. This is why black and white photography remains current and continues to draw in both viewers and photographers. Today, a new generation of photographers is exploring the possibilities of black and white photography in a world, where digital photography has become the norm.
