It's nowt to do with romance. Or at least, if it is in your case, then I'm not sure that's the most valuable reason to be enamoured of it. Mono has certain qualities that colour doesn't, and vice versa. Different strengths, different meaning. So it's ridiculous to suggest that one might be superior to the other.I'm have to admit I am an old romantic and I absolutely love black and white photography. I don't know what it is but even the vibrancy of colour I always feel it would look better in black and white. Am I the only one? Am I lost in my dull self?
Why is it nothing o do with romance. I prefer my wife to others because if romance. People buy Fuji because of romance. I'm at a loss as to why you feel it can't be?It's nowt to do with romance.

They are different photographic media, each with a different import (or 'message capability'). The deal is to play to their strengths, as equals.
You lost me at 'wife' and 'romance' in the same sentence.Why is it nothing o do with romance. I prefer my wife to others because if romance. People buy Fuji because of romance. I'm at a loss as to why you feel it can't be?
I agree there are qualities of either or. But this is why I can here. I wanted to discuss and see if I was alone.
You realise some people have sex dolls and others love feet?? I'm not judging them people have preferences
I'm not a member but I'll go have a lookThere's currently a premium competition open on the Photocrowd website for B&W portraits, there are some seriously impressive entries. You need to subscribe to see them I think.
do share!I love shooting in black and white! I did some amazing ones of my fiance both times I've seen him in person and we think he photographs well in black and white.
Most camera's won't shoot a black and white raw. Everyone changes it post production (LR or PS) to get their desired effect I'd assumeSome nice photos, As a side question if I may, does shooting in colour and then using something like lightroom to make the image B&W make a significant diference to setting the camera to B&W initially?
