b&w.

which do you prefer: color photos or black and white?  i love to look at either, but have never had the opportunity to shoot anything but color (digital, at that)--until now.  i'm really apprehensive!  i so often use color to set the mood of a photograph that i'm unsure of how to go about making black and white pictures.  

i've been feeling pretty pathetic in my foundations of photography class, so i'm putting together this quick post to give myself (and everyone else out there) a little b&w inspiration:

i hope so!
