Panagbenga Festival in Black and White

When one speaks of "festivals," it is very obvious that there will be a burst of color everywhere. But what happens when festivals are stripped of color?


These are just two of the many images I took from the very first Panagbenga Festival I attended. These were originally shot in color, and I just processed them using GIMP to make it black and white. I don't know which I like more (color or b&w), but whatever format, it looks pleasant to me. Seeing these in black and white gives that textbook or newspaper feel to it, and I like it, too.
