Although documentary photography can, and should, be done in any colour, there's a certain historic legacy surrounding black and white documentary photos. This is a medium that takes away all the distractions of colour and enables the viewer to focus in on the primary subject and its tones, textures and shapes. Monochrome shots are a great way to carry a story - so why not try it out for yourself.
