Adam,

I completely agree. I have done the same thing - several times over. YOu are 
hit 
by the not-quite-B&W which is somewhat unreal and then the colour comes 
through, 
but it only adds to the scene; it doesn't swamp it in anyway, just 
beautifully 
balanced.

My daughter came in and pronounced it "Coooooollll!!!!". THAT is high praise 
indeed :-)

Many thanks for posting it.
