Black and White - Nostalgia # 37

What do you prefer in a photo, colored or black and white? It doesn't matter right? It's how you take the photograph that counts or I should say the message that it conveys right? One advantage of the black and white old photograph is that they last forever. Unlike this colored photographs that we have now, as soon as they get wet, they're ruined. But no matter how we take the photographs, it is important to remember that it is a memory that we are trying to preserve for the future generation.
What is your opinion? What do you think is the importance of photographs?

  11. I totally agree that it's the memory we are trying to preserve. Colored or course, is very nice but it's also true that b/w lasts longer.

  12. I think sometimes - I prefer it black and white - sometimes not - depends on my mood, i guess? lol! Though at the end of the day - it's the memory that you get to treasure the most.

  15. I do a lot of editing on my photos and I love both colored, black and white, sepia anything just as long as it captures such a great moment or a great place. Pictures are really wonderful because it helps preserve those cherished moments.

  17. I think when you take photos in black and white, they look more like classic photos.
