Thank you for all your comments and feedback on my black and white vs color exploration this week. I received the most positive feedback on the black and white "dandelion" and the color bi-plane. If you hadn't known the plane was red...would it have made a difference? I wonder....
And I don't think I noticed a perceptible difference between the photographs taken originally as b&w and those changed later. Maybe the difference would show more if the photograph were enlarged on a grand scale?
Many of you wanted to see the top black and white bi-plane as a color image, so I'm happy to oblige. You're right...it's a stand-out in color. I think the motion is more obvious for some reason. Maybe it's the shades of grey you have to have delineated very sharply when done in b&w.
I received a number of comments on whether there was a difference between a black and white shot taken in the camera, or one transitioned in Photoshop or another image editing program. It seems that most people like the option of having either a color or b&w image, so we're a group who will likely shoot in color and then decide whether b&w will work, later. I think I'm with you on this one.

Interesting discussion - thank you. Have a great weekend; I'm working on something fun for Monday!

I'll have to try some B&W myself. Thanks.
Char - it's a setting in my camera, which is really handy!
