Bob needs Color to survive

2004-10-28 by john dean

I hate to break the news to ya Bob, but this is a site devoted to - DIGITAL BLACK AND 
WHITE THE PRINT. And as far as my work goes, I consider black and white an amazing 
vehicle to express what you fell about what you see. Color photography does not make the 
work more real, just more illusionary.
