Many colors can be referred to different meaning based upon alternating perspectives, so this photo is in black and white for multiple reasons. One reason is because black and white to me shows a sad mood. These colors can mean multiple things, but in this photo one can see that it shows a sign of depression. I believe the artist was trying to convey the message of distress to the public by not only using colors but also using his body language. From the looks of his face people can assume that he was very miserable and some people turn to liquor or cigarettes when they are looking for comfort from stressing. From the words" Jim, if you choose to accept, the mission is to land on your own two feet.", you can see that his mission is too hard for him to land on his feet so he makes this bad decision instead. Along with the colors and body language used in this photo, these words show that he is taking the wrong route through hardship. The colors are the main part of this artwork because without black and white to top off the photo it would have possibly been interpreted in another way.
