40+ Stunning Black And White Photographs
Color is beautiful, no doubt about it. In fact, here at Elite By Design we’ve shown off a lot of very neat galleries filled with bright and vibrant colors – but not today. Black and white is the new focus, with photographs that have the ability to convey messages and meanings with no color as they put more focus on lighting, angle, and contrast.
Here are forty stunning black and white photographs to help inspire you to look beyond color and see the true meaning of a photograph. Click each thumbnail to see the larger image on the original site.

What a great idea for an inspiration collection. I am especially impressed by the photograph of the girl with the cigarette – powerful and hard to forget. The very best of black and white photography demonstrates how much can be conveyed with minimal colour.
Thanks so much for including one of my photos in this great selection!
@Tracey Grady:
You’re right, that is a very powerful and compelling image. Black and white is quite interesting, it conveys meaning and emotions without the need for vibrant “eye-candy,” which is what makes this style so classic and interesting.
@Ron Pyke:
No problem, thank you for your photographs!
great photos.
white & black : my cool life
stunning indeed – and sometime disturbing
I love black and white – very awesome list!
Nice collection! Almost forgot how powerful black and white images are. Kind of like how it’s very easy to forget the quiet beauty around you sometimes.

Thanks for the comments everyone, I’m really glad you enjoyed the post, and I certainly hope you were inspired in some way!
nice.
Nice and really impressive picks…:)
Excellent collection, really. Pure black and white contrast is stunning. Your collection also makes me feel like exploring the square format more. Very interesting, thank you.
Amazing, all of them, but my favorite has to be the freckled girl with the shawl. Stunning.
Thanks for adding my photo !!! I’m really honored to be on this great B&W collection !!
