Robert,

There is also another category of photographer - those who film and print in
full, glorious COLOR (horror, oh horror!). They often look at these pale
red, pale blue, or pale yellow prints that so-called BLACK&WHITE
photographers produce, and think 'Why do they persist in using such
old-fashioned methods of making prints coloured?'.
