I agree with Ted that when you photograph people in color, you are photographing their clothes. When you photograph them in B&W, without the distraction of color, you see their faces and eyes - soul, if you will. Unless there is a specific reason for using color, I usually prefer B&W. I have versions of all of these photos in color, but it's the B&W ones that move me: http://tinamanley.smugmug.com/gallery/5885005_Vryn9#367425430_KikRj <http://tinamanley.smugmug.com/gallery/5885005_Vryn9#367425430_KikRj>B&W is coming back for use in advertising, too. It stands out among all of the color snapshots that bombard us constantly.

Inquiring minds want to know. Larry Z
