Personally, I find looking at a color picture, you get so much information, extraneous to the image, about the actual colors. I have heard it said, possibly even on this group, I can't remember where for sure that in color you see the color of the clothes the people wear, in B&W you see the color of their soul. I guess if you looked at the size of a scan in color, vs the same image in b&w, there is a significant reduction in the number of bytes for the b&w. Maybe there is a relation between how much information we see and can process, and the lesser amount of info makes the b&w image easier for our brains to absorb!! ;) Just my thoughts Noel
