Another reason to revisit old work is that with digital photography you aren’t stuck with the choices you made at the time. Back in 2018 I was largely a black-and-white all-the-time photographer, but I’ve been looking over those photos and reworking them in colour. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn’t #photos #photography

A woman reading a book in the park at the root of Mont Royal in Montréal. In black and white which makes the shadows of the trees very distinct
That same photo of the woman reading, except in colour. This deemphasises the shadows and trees but emphasises the sense of summer.
A black and white photo of a silhouette of a boy standing under a tree
That same photo except in colour. The addition of colour makes the photo feel a bit less real.
