Would you prefer monochrome?
It seems monochrome as it is, with the brown, rather than true black and white. Don’t get me wrong, I like it! I’m just confused. I’ve seen colors in things other people insist are grey before and it always makes me feel like a nut. So I like to clarify when I can, if this is truly black and white or if it has a brown tint.
Edit: just looked up the definition of monochrome, apparently it means both black and white or varying tones of one color. Which makes sense now that I think of it, but I’ve never used monochrome to describe black and white.
No worries! I appreciate the explanation. It's a monochrome digital image with a light sepia toned filter applied at the time I took the photo. It's not a true black and white photograph and there aren't any tags for sepia, monochrome, Van Dyke, etc. so I tagged it black and white. I suppose I could start #monochrome .
