The Absence of Color, The Presence of Imagination (Portrait)

Fotografi hitam putih (black and white photography) begitu memikat hati saya. Walaupun pada realitasnya saya tidak selalu memotret dalam hitam putih bahkan pada kenyataannya, saya lebih banyak memproduksi foto warna, namun foto hitam putih selalu mendapat tempat.
Kesederhanaan yang ditampilkan foto hitam putih begitu menarik sekaligus artistik. Foto hitam putih seakan mampu memberikan sentuhan class, timelessness, romance, dan mystery dalam sebuah foto, sekaligus.

Torajan Funeral Ceremony

On a hot afternoon in a dusty, dry field, many rows of water buffalo are standing together patiently in the sun. With his left hand holding the first buffalo in the row by a short rope and his right hand softly stroking its head, a young Torajan with a broad bladed knife tucked into his waistband prepares himself for the ritual slaughter.

With lightning speed he pulls the broad blade from its sheath and slices down across the water buffalo’s neck. A split second later blood spurts from the wound and the buffalo sinks to its knees and falls over.
