Then I will present a view that’s entirely mine and will address some of those arguments, but not all. They don’t reflect my opinion, I’m just stating them as I have encountered on many occasions. I will try to argue that it’s not just a subjective preference but that there are also more objective arguments, sometimes based on scientific evidence, that black and white can work better than color.įirst start with the arguments that the color advocates have for not using black and white, then the arguments of the black and white advocates. You could argue that the preference of black and white over color or vice versa is a highly subjective and personal preference. Especially in this digital age where even small phones are capable of taking high quality color images.
This is a question that has been asked to many black and white photographers, usually by photographers who are just starting and have the natural tendency to shoot color first or by seasoned photographers who still doubt the technical, aesthetic or artistic justification of black and white over color.
