Was it Ellington when asked what was jazz, "If you gotta ask you'll never
know"?

I'm sorry, but I have to disagree, it depends on the photograph. Without
wishing to blow my own trumpet, if you look at the B&W pictures on my web
site (www.steveunsworth.co.uk), I just don't think that many of them would
have worked in colour.
