LoveFriday initiated by @liliana.duarte - LIFE IN A B&W PHOTO

LoveFriday, a challenge by @liliana.duarte! Thanks!

Today, on #LoveFriday, I'm bringing you my writing, and another analogy between photography and life. In this case, between black and white photography and life. (see last week's post on B&W photography also, the first link at the final of this post).

Hope you like it!

Color photos in colors can be more direct, it's there, more obvious, and you can view and absorb it in a faster way.

Black and white photography requires time, asks us to decode it, to dwell on it, on its details, its texture, so relevant in B&W, as help us to find out what it doesn't show immediately, rather suggest. Its subtle hues and shades of gray bring wings to our imagination and sensations.

In life, we must also learn how to see in color and in black and white. See right away what the color shows us, but, in a way more subtly, see in the black and white what they don't show us at the moment and just predicts.

In life, we should learn to see with new eyes, with new perspectives, we should learn to see the different colors in the gray, the lines between the lines, the colors that flow out them and sometimes scream to be seen. To discover the emotions that exhale from the range of grays, shades, and light.

Life can be like a black and white photo sometimes. But sometimes, like a black and white photo, beauty expresses itself even more than if it were in colors. But, the same way as black and white contain all colors, we also should, while seeing and living our life, be colorful and have our own colors. See life in color, either it is in colors or in black and white.

Thanks for reading this post, thanks for spreading the LOVE, thanks for your support in this LoveFriday!

This is also my entry to the amazing Friday #streetphotography by @photocontests and @juliank :)). Cheers to you too, my friend!
