six reasons that I enjoy black and white photography

* Black and white photography is seen less frequently; hence it is rare - and for that reason alone... it is of interest

* When used "properly," black and white accentuates the depth of the photograph

* Black and white heightens emotional content

* Black and white photography has a tendency to make photos look more like works of art

* Produces a clean, crisp look

* Transforms a dingy or overcast look into a striking photo evoking emotion
