Re: Epson Stylus color 740 B&W with QTR: it is possible?

2008-05-31 by fabozzism

Hi Roy,

I shoot B&W only, from digital files (color) converted to B&W with
Photoshop CS3. Don't like color, it "catch the eye" too much. I like
B&W because the message you want the observer gets from you is more
simple and direct (and sometimes more clear).

Just my opinion.

Thanks for your answer anyway.

Cheers,
