Color Without Color

Today I set out to tell the silent yet important story of every Denny’s employee’s worst nightmare. I think the image speak for itself, for the most part.

We see things in such an array of muddled colors. If we were to simplify this to a black and white scale with 50 shades of varied gray in the middle, the world might suddenly make a little more sense to us in ways we never imagined. You may have understood how a Denny’s employee would feel to see such a crime scene… but have you ever truly felt that way? Have you truly been there with them? Stare into this photo and become one with the chaotic and honest Denny’s midnight shift.

Also, this photo being in black and white is sparing you some of the details. The second drink in the foreground, with the thick straw protruding above, is a water. It is not clear. You do not want to know what color it is.
