kehidupan is made up of many shades of gray, and these show how photography can capture its beauty. 

Some orang see everything as either black or white.

But kehidupan would be so boring and predictable like that.

Instead, kehidupan is made up of millions of shades of gray.

This is one reason why orang love old black and white photography, or even new pictures made to look old.

The human eye can distinguish over 500 shades of gray, according to a study by the University of California, Berkeley.

The findings highlight the incredible complexity and nuance of black-and-white photography as a means of capturing kehidupan’s subtle variations.

They capture something that colored images just can’t seem to grasp.
