Simple...Black & White

At one time all photography was in monochrome, until the invention of Kodachrome ( remember the Paul Simon tune?) Today many photographers are rediscovering the simplistic beauty of black and white and are giving viewers a sense of nostalgia.
Ask someone to describe their feelings of a monochrome image and you will hear "classic, artistic, natural and haunting" ask another and you will hear something completely different!
Black and white just gives a real appreciation for details. Its simple, by taking away colour you see the image without distraction.
