I don't often compose in color, though it happens. What is ironic is that I have to be more aware of colors when I shoot B&W film (to use the appropriate color filter - as Slobodan mentioned a day or two ago) than when I shoot color film. One fortuitously nice thing about digital is that the decision for B&W/color and how to color filter can be deferred until post-postprocessing, and can be done at a much higher level of precision. [Another nice thing about shooting digital is that I have never had a backlog of unprocessed film. I am about 15 rolls behind at the moment. Once in a while I am very tempted to replace my Jobo CPP-2 unit with a more automated ATL model] - Phong
