Black & White vs. Colour

Anyone who knows me and my style of photography will know that I absolutely adore black & white photos. Whenever I get involved in a discussion on which is better, I always side with black & white: until yesterday. Yesterday I did a shoot with Ilona. When I loaded the pictures onto my computer, I was shocked that I preferred the color as opposed to the desaturated image. Here's a sample below. I think the colour is magical.

More from the shoot to come soon!
