Making Black and White photographs is fun, where all objects lose their color, leaving only a dark / light tone that forms the dimensions of an object that are heavily determined by the character and the intensity of the light on it. To produce a good black and white photo, it takes a process to rearrange the tone to get a beautiful black and white photo.
Make black and white photos in the digital age, should shoot them in color mode, to get a richer tone variant rather than shooting them in monochrome mode.
