Sorry to say this, but they are as good (or bad) as the color pictures. Value isn’t always in “pretty colors”, “pretty colors” are just a very convenient way to market photography to the mass public. Black & white is and always was many times a more powerful way of expression.
That being said these photos work better in black and white because they concentrate more on high contrast, blackness of the bird with the lightness and emptiness of the environment. The subject is isolated using contrast and shallow depth of field. Color on the ground (because the crow is black) would only have drawn unnecessary attention on it.
In conclusion, I cannot judge my photos because they are mine and also I cannot let the untrained public eye to judge them, but the comment regarding color was just silly.
i do not mean this ~ not color not to those photos! i just said i like colorful pictures you know not to your photos yes, I have to admit that everybody has different taste So,please~~~
Yes but when you say “I hope you produce better photos” it is no longer a subjective matter, but objective. And objective advices based on subjective views (you like color better than black&white) just don’t work 🙂
Cheers 🙂
compare to it i like colourful pictures Hope you can produce better photos
