Never put up photos, then make excuses for those that don't cut it! Simply because you pull down the complete set! Bad move! If you have to make excuses for your photography then don't post them. Look at it this way..."If in doubt? OUT!" For family? Cool! as they think every shot you make you're a brilliant photographer as happens in nearly every family. ;-) I would trust you shot colour in the Hermitage and the B&W's posted merely a token of the shoot. Having shot a documentary in '92 on the Hermitage I cannot for the life of me even contemplate shooting B&W in such a magnificent edifice! One becomes memorized by it's fantastic beauty the moment you walk inside. If there is one place I'd return to in a heart beat it's St. Petersburg and the Hermitage! :-) ted Ted Grant Photography Limited 1817 Feltham Road Victoria BC V8N 2A4 250-477-2156
