You jumped something of a chasm to arrive at that conclusion which is usual in internet discussions. I prefer colour and if I've got it available I shoot in colour. With a digital camera it's always available. I also like printing my own pictures in a darkroom but I've never had the time to learn how to be a good colour printer so I shoot black and white occasionally so I can have something to print.

I tend to be like George, if I took the picture because of the color, the color stays in, otherwise...
