The proverb "black will take no other hue" is a metaphor that suggests that the fundamental nature of things cannot be changed. It means that superficial alterations, like decorations, cannot alter something's inherent quality or nature. For example, "A leopard can't change its spots, just as 'black will take no other hue'"
In color theory, adding black to a hue creates a shade, which darkens the color while keeping the hue the same. Adding white to a color creates a tint, which lightens the value. Adding both black and white to a hue creates a tone, which can be darker or lighter than the original hue.

Below are two photos I took in Monterey CA more than a week ago, using a new iPad (M2). I'm not a photographer, but when I changed the tone to make them black & white (kind of ;-), the results are very interesting to me. Hope that you like them too.
Thanks for reading and have a nice Saturday everyone!
