I love black and white photographs for their ability to bring greater emphasis to the graphic patterns of a man’s wardrobe.

This guy’s face is awesome. I love the sly look to the side. The mole. The facial hair. It’s all good.

I’m afraid in this case, color would have been nice. It’s a crucial element to the successful mixing of patterns, and it’s something you totally lose here.

An excellent example to illustrate your point: this b/w photo, akin to a charcoal or pencil drawing, brings out the values (the different shades of gray between black and white) of the textures–even his beard and skin are integral to the composition. The weave and patterns of the hat, tie, scarf and jacket are photographic equivalents of the techniques used to create shading: hatching and cross-hatching.

Black and white photography definitely brings an edge to an image that color just can’t quite grasp. In color I may not be as intrigued by this man. Now, it’s not just his clothes I’m looking at, but I’m wondering what he’s thinking about so intently. B&W gives a raw seriousness to any photo – even in fashion. Thanks for sharing this!

I generally agree with you about BW, and that scarf is great. (It’s great period and it’s great in BW.) But in this case I’d like to see the colors in the plaid and how they work with the colors in the tie. Kinda like the way the guy’s cutting his gaze to his left. Don’t know why.

Oh I love this scarf, my grandma used to make those for us kids!
I like the photo in Black and White, gives it more mystery but I agree with j above that I would like to see it in colour too.
By the way, I love the way this genteleman dresses!
A big kiss from Greece!
