black and white... i kept think i would really like that photo of the turtle if it were in color.. i just do not like B&W photos 90% of the time.

Nice shots! I can't believe I never thought of doing b&w on green sea turtles. I'm going to try that out!

Very Cool Raj!
I love the BW it puts emphazis on the texture which is nice, different but nice!

It would be interesting to put the same underwater photo in colour and blackwhite and see how many people prefer which one.

I like the B&W UW shots.
I remember going to a Scuba show once and there was a presentation of a photographer that shot B&W film images with a Nikonos, and they were awesome.
One day when I get back into diving I will do the same.

I sure hope so, and I sure I hope I get some more opportunities at diving and underwater photography!!

Well, black & white photos don't work for all kinds of images IMHO.. There are few things though, which absolutely shout to be black & white..
