No one really uses that public telescope but people like to hang around it. That's my "street corner".

The RNLI, the British lifeguards can sometimes be seen asking for donations. I never understood why until I looked into it: they aren't funded by the government in order to retain their freedom. 92% of their income is said to come from donations - I have never done so yet; their chief executive, appointed last year, earns £160k per year.

It's been only a week and a half of black and white but I've found some answers I'm happy with to the question "what makes black and white different than colour?", and so I'm back to colour.
There can be many reasons, answers, explanations, but I just needed one that satisfied me: black and white changes how we perceive a photo. Colour work shows how a scene looked, in a very close fashion to reality - that can be mundane to some, not magic enough. Black and white isn't realistic, it kind of transcend whatever is depicted. Because it's not real, it taps into a different part of the brain, triggers a different response; colour goes to some more primordial parts of the brain - reptilian brain. A black and white image might be identified as art while an identical scene in colour will only appear as whatever is shown.
An interesting challenge would be to make a colour photo good enough to trigger an identical response than a black and white, if such a thing is possible.
