Here’s another image that was really well impacted by its black and white treatment. This particular restroom is very… beige. It’s a business/corporate space, and it’s… beige. Boring.
By converting to black and white, and then amping up the contrast, I took it from beige to gritty. Maybe a little edgy, even…
Death to beige.
Sometimes taking away some boring colors of a picture, also takes aways the flaws while leaving the good parts perhaps.
Well, why black and white pictures tends to be so good, is to me still a bit unsure. Perhaps it leaves more to the imagination? Perhaps there is just less distraction with colors not blending? Who knows.
