what terms and conditions?

when colors represent dynamics and vivacity, black-and-white pictures bring a sense of pacifying stillness; the muted power a smoldering ember that leaves much to the imagination rather than an explosion of sparks that assaults the senses.

the monochromatic landscape also serves to hide the defects presented by a discordance of colors. it eliminates distractions and draw the viewer's attention to the form, composition, and message of the image. form becomes form. light becomes light. shadow becomes shadow. the image is the image.

when life could be converted into black and white, it would be like this:

this is GOOD that is BAD

this man will make you HAPPY all the time that man will make you CRY your heart out

you LOVE this one you HATE that one

this dress is GORGEOUS that one is UGLY AS HELL

you go this way you'll be SUCCESSFUL you go that way you're SCREWED

and each and every one of the above will apply to everyone, every time, no exceptions, with no gray area and no buts. no "terms and conditions apply". in short, life will be a lot easier to lead.
