I tend to shoot in black & white for my photography as I want to show a sort of timeless photographs and find that sometimes colour distracts you in the photograph especially if I am shooting street photography. This is a photo of Tower Bridge I took a few years ago. Comments wellcome

I agree that colour can be distracting. Your photo shows so much detail and is very atmospheric.

I love looking at those early black and white photographs, especially those taken of the hard working families from the cities with their ill fitting clothes and that unwashed look. They give off an air of desperation that almost brings a tear to the eye.

I often turn down the color controls on the tv when watching a colour film so I can watch it in B/W for some reason it seems more real life?
