SOME SURPRISINGLY COLORLESS MOMENTS IN THE WOODS

avatar

It was a very colorful day, I was in a very colorful state of mind ... but ...

(Enlargeable)

... but when I entered the woods ...

... the colors somehow disappeared ...

... flew into the nothingness ...

... faded away ... faraway from this place ... from my eyes ...

... or just turned into many shades of gray ...

... who knows ... I surely don't ... but ...

... anyway ... anyhow ...

... this strange, unexpected and quite complete desaturation ...

... gave me a nice new prospective on the world around me ...

... in the absence of color ...

... the shapes ... lines ... and similar elements ...

... came in the center of my focus ...

... and that ...

... ended up to be a very enjoyable experience ...

... I saw a snake hanging from the tree ...

... like some scaly, reptilian climbing plant ...

... I saw flowers ...

... many kinds of flowers ...

... and some cool, stylish heart - sheaped seeds ...

... I mean, I saw much more ... I saw tons of cool stuff ... but I didn't photograph everything ...

DSC03902 malo.jpg

... it was just too much to photograph ... then I decided to go home ... I was hungry and slightly tired, you know ... and when I exited the forest ...

... the colors returned ... to their ordinary places ... the sky was blue, the foliage was green ... and so on ...

As always in this rambling adventures on HIVE, the photographs are my work.

Hi
Why posting a full color image as your cover in a black and white community? 😒

... so the rest of the post is a black and white surprise ... and it makes sense with the story ...which has black & white in its focus ... but it needed to start with some colors

I think this "Image not shown due to low ratings" it's absolutely not right, deeply wrong and totally short-sighted, narrow-minded, maybe even feeble - minded move... yes it is.

Have you even read the post? It's about black and white ... it starts, and it ends in color ... but all the long, important stuff in between it's in black and white. And it makes sense ... in that context ... and definitely it has a lot to do with this community ... c'mon, don't be so petty ...

You chose to post in a niche and very specific community called Black And White Photography. A community with only five rules, where the first one reads "Full color images stay at the door" and the fifth "Any user publishing colored images will be muted".
Assuming you even read them, which part of those rules didn't you understand?
And then, and quoting your own words, WE (the team) are short-sighted, narrow-minded feeble-minded and petty. Gotta love the irony...
You can now continue with your pseudo-eloquent monolog if you wish. You've been muted in the black and white community for disrespecting our rules and team members.
Have a great day.
