I'm of the old school that feels you have to visualize the scene in the 
medium
that it's going to end up in.  When I have B&W loaded, I look for pictures 
that
will translate best into monochrome, and the converse for color.  But then, I
just love B&W more than color.  Aside from abstracts that use color as a 
design
element, autumn is about the only time I feel like making color pictures for
myself.
