Tina:

<<People photographs, to me, are just more effective in black and
white.>>

I have found this to be so true.  When I photograph people in color, the
comments usually center around the color - i.e. - "Oh, that dress is so
pretty", or "Gee that background looks nice with her hair".

With black and white, the comments are much more about the subject -
especially the eyes and hands.
