Gerry, Philippe, Aram

Thank you very much for your kind comments, I?m glad you like my color work.

Gerry, I understand and thank you your thoughts, maybe you are right? I do 
more color because my MM is in Wetzlar, when I have the M9 in my hands, I 
don?t know why but I think my eyes are viewing more in color, in other 
words, I?m shooting to some subjects that I would not shoot with the MM, my 
mentality react different. However I think there is a difference  to do a 
picture in color or B&W, IMHO the B&W helps to concentrate your vision on 
the essential, the color give a more decorative aspect, I think that some 
pictures don?t give anything more if they are in color and others yes, it 
depends of the subject and of course of your own preferences. This is a 
topic usually discussed and nobody has the true, everyone has his own 
preferences. However when I really like a color picture is when I see 
pictures from i.e. Ernst Haas, where the colour is a element of the 
composition.

Cheers
Lluis
