Chris, I would respond that the B&W conversion does indeed add more than a
dollop of drama, but it changes a happy light hearted image into a big pot
of soap opera drama that wasn't there. It stinks of trying to make an image
into something else, like some of the photoshop/no photoshop discussions.

Subject: Re: [OM] IMGS: Color vs B&W
Hmmm... There isn't much range of colour, and adjusting the gamma,
brightness, etc. really doesn't offer much improvement. The B&W, however,
shows the texture of the rough wood much better, giving the photo a deep
rustic appearance.
Overall, I'd say the B&W image is more dramatic.

Still scanning old Fuji RMS slides. I thought I would prefer the B&W, but
in this case, I prefer the color:
