This image was taken during a recent wedding event shoot. This specific shot was taken during the tea ceremony. I like this shot, mainly because of the contrast between two generations. And to me, this is one of those shots which work way better in black and white. There’s more impact, and the meaning is clearer. With colour, the eyes will be distracted gold watch, the green jade bangle, and the polished finger nails. Removing the colour removes the distractions.
