It lets your imagination do the driving, rather than getting led

Photography captures a still frame, however video is a progression of thousands or millions of pictures. Therefore for a photograph to tell the same story that a video does, it must capture concept, detail, emotion, and have balance at the same time. People will pay more attention to the small details of the photo while they may not even see it in the video, because it has too much visual and sound stimuli that are constantly progressing. And viewers will take the small details in the photo and let it weave its own story. Basically, Photography captures a vague, yet corporeal still frame that lets the viewers elaborate on it with their imagination on their own.

The more content, the less involvment by the viewer. A B/W still calls for max involvement. A color movie the least. Remember all those vacation movies that you swore you'd never, ever, do. Well, they didn't get any better 'cause they're now called video. Remember those Westons, Adams, Bressants, that sold for fortunes? they went up.

Photography can freeze a moment for eternity.

resolution!!!!
unless a movie is shot on 35mm or 70mm film the resolution is very low - to low for quality still images.
if you watch the credits of a major movie you will notice there is always at least one still photographer - the shots are used for promo and PR
EDIT: those saying a moment in time are missing the point - moving pictures are just alot of moments in time joined together at low resolution (unless on film) - eg 26 frames a second is 26 moments in time recorded.........

it captures a still moment in time that is frozen forever and on video you simply can't stop a frame forever. expecially in black and white photography. in my opinion it is much more inspiring because we dont see much in black in white anymore.
