Black & White, Color, or Sepia??

Black and white pics are classic...they go in any room also. I do however love sepia for that aged look. It depends on the subject in or of the photo.

I have to agree. I mainly shoot in black and white with my manul, and only in color with my digital. The digital camera is really weak and it shakes a lot, so I prefer to use either my friend's digital or my own manual. My mother was a photographer, as well as my father, and they both had a love for shooting in black and white; I have a feeling that's where it came from. SOme of the photos my parents took for college assignments or portfolios, I have kept and framed, using them as the artwork in my room. Black and white photos, to me, seem to capture memories better, but that's just my opinion overall.

It's funny, but I'm starting to like sepia more and more. I don't generally shoot in anything but color. I always seem to regret it later if I do. Instead, I'll change the photo to black and white or sepia in PhotoShop later. Even though my point and shoot digital camera will let you shoot directly in black and white, sepia, or even cyanotype (not sure where that one comes in handy).

For myself it depends on the picture. What the background is, the subject in it, and even the time of day for the image. Some look spectacular in full color but then seeing them in other formats can really change the perspective of the photos. Same with a black and white where the shadows really play an important part and can alter how things appear. Put it in color or Sepia and suddenly everything changes. Each picture has to be determined on it's own.

I like all of the above. I think it would depend on the setting and what it was for really. I know that taking black and white pictures of my son while he was in the grass touching flowers and such was very nice. So it just depends on what you want. What I love to see is a black and white picture of snow and a red bird in the picture. Very pretty.

HAPPY V DAY! i like colored ones but your right black and white do give a certain feel to the picture. I like some pictures in black and white.

I love color. Black and Whit are Ok, too look at but I prefer color. I always like colors anyway is when I dress-up I like my colors, I like bright colors. all the time.

Happy Valentines to you too :) I love black and white photos but only as what I call the "artsy" pictures. I like color for family and everyday works. As well as for most nature work too. I love the vibarint colors. Sepia is one of my least favorite.

I have both kinds but never heard of sepia and Happy Valentines Day to you also

My absolute favorites are color photos. But I do love how black and white photographs can hung in any room without having to fit into the color scheme.

well you are right it does depend also on what type of feel you want to give to a photo I always think that if you want a sad photo go black & white

I like color for everyday photos. Black and white is really nice to use on children every once and awhile, I love the way it looks.

I prefer to shoot in full color because then i can change them to B&w or Sepia or a color tone as the feel of the picture presents. My all time fav is black and white with color accents. It really brings a bit more to the photo.

The type of photograph will decide if it should be in color, black and white or tinted as sepia. It is not everytime that a photograph will work as color or as black and white. I do love black and white and sometimes put some tint on it. However, I have photographs that will work best in color.

Absolutely color. What is the reason to live without color? If you take away th colors from the photo you make a bad mistake

I always take color and prefer then because I like taking landscapes and sunrises. I think color is best for that. I think at times black and white would be good, but I have never used it.
