[Leica] What are the most important aspects of a photographic image?

[images at comporium.net (Tina Manley)]

I'm selling B&W.  Would always love to sell more, but it's still selling.
 Lots for greeting cards, fund-raisers for NGOs, and an occasional art
print.  I'll continue to make B&W whether it sells or not.  I just love it.
 I still believe Ted's often quoted comment that B&W shows the subject's
soul, color depicts their clothes.  I do wonder about the Afghan Girl and
her green eyes, but *almost *all people photography, I prefer in B&W.

Just my opinion.
