Monochrome Week:
Contrast is what keeps your black and white images from looking flat; it adds dimension, and dimension can go a long way towards making a photo more engaging. It invites the viewer into the image.
But contrast isn’t just important in black and white, and not every photo needs to have a complete range of tones to be an effective image.
Some people think that low-contrast means lacking in contrast or associate it with flat. Some also believe that the more contrast there is, the better. I disagree.
High-contrast (an extreme range between bright and dark) scenes may confine a viewer’s attention for sure, but a low-contrast (with a narrow brightness range) scene may convey serenity and peace, softness and is characteristic of gentleness and mildness. Creates a feeling of delicacy and lightness.

Of course, there is something dark in it. The whole image gives the atmosphere of isolation and melancholy. It is mystery and sense of timelessness of the world.
