Anybody can shoot color; few can shoot black and white! I agree with you, Jim. B&W is often superior to color images, and both have their place. In Diesel Era, nearly 90% of the photos we run are from B&W prints, not color slides that were scanned and converted to B&W. A few of the B&Ws are created that way, but the vast majority were shot as B&W. However, it was not a young fan, (Dave Busse I think was the original source, but may be wrong) that made the comments about the "Antique" B&Ws. I still shoot more B&W than color and have since the early sixties.
