Black and White

Black and white





Vibrant colours He created,
Photography then originated,

Pictures showed black and white,
With no third colour in the sight,

Emotions still were smiling bright,
Could depict every inside fight,

Now today we have as many hues, 
Are they able to show all the blues ?

Sober at times can most impress,
Even the colours may not express,

Those were times of black and white,
Amidst most modern also don't fail to excite !

Black & white photos do have a deep emotional quality to them that colored photos just do not possess... You've captured that so artfully here. Nicely done, Dr. Upma! Congrats on the win!
