Hmmm... I hope this is as good as they said it is.

Think... think... I know the answer... maybe I should have more coffee!

Interesting pics. I like the potential stories in each one.
Ok. What is it about black/white that makes a pic seem to have more of a story to it than in color?

Thank you for looking, Kathy.
In answer to your question, there is no definitive answer.
I personally like BW becuase there seems to be a greater intensity and mystery.
But there are occasions such as photographing a dancer in traditional costume, where color would be an obvious choice.

I love B&W because it looks real to me. I'm colorblind and don't see colors the way "Normal" folks do.

Nice set of shots and glad you are posting B&W.

i am also colorblind and have difficulty discerning proper color. however, that has nothing to do with my love for b&w. for me, rarely does an image tell a good story, and when it does it's b&w.

nice series.
