Leo: What do you think of this photo, Gemma?


Gemma: It's not my cup of tea, actually. It's too dark. The photographer seems to like taking very dark
images, doesn't he?
Leo: Yes, it does seem that way. But surely you're impressed by the locations. Look at this one, in
the middle of nowhere. It must have taken some time and effort to travel there, with all his
cameras and equipment. It's so remote!
Gemma: Yeah, I guess. But why have everything in black and white? It's so dreary!
Leo: I see your point. I think some of these photos could work well in colour too. But it would
change the whole atmosphere, wouldn't it? I'm pretty sure the photographer wanted to create
a dark kind of atmosphere.
Gemma: Maybe, but I prefer something a bit more colourful and optimistic.
