[Digital BW] Re: Grayscale Vs Color (was PFP with UT7)

Well said. The films of these guys are more "real" if you want to use
a 10 cent word that has no "real" value in the "real" artworld. There
is nothing missing in early Hitchcock. That is the highest form of
visual expression accomplished in photography in over 100 years. Most
people who are "real" artists and not techno marketers know that.
