Yes, pure BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOGRAPHY can indeed have a "colourful" effect, even though it may not directly include colour in the traditional sense. In black and white photography, the contrast, composition, and texture can create a sense of vibrancy and dynamism that evokes the emotional intensity and richness typically associated with colour.
Essentially, BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOGRAPHY uses its own set of visual tools (contrast, texture, light, and composition) to create the emotional and visual impact that colour can achieve. While it’s not literal colour, it’s still a "colourful" experience because of its ability to evoke feelings, depth, and intensity.
