Hi Marnie... This is an interesting comment. I have another, somewhat anecdotal example of the opposite viewpoint. My mom, a high school arts teacher in a small, rural community recently brought her photography students to an exhibit of some of Ansel Adam's B&W work here in Portland. The exhibit also included color prints of similar locations done by Adam Bacher, an accomplished local outdoor photographer. (You can find his gallery by searching on Google.)
To my surprise, the students all agreed that the B&W work had a greater visual impact than the color work, although they were both technically excellent. t On 1/13/03 3:39 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > But I find B&W boring.
