Regarding Sandra Hoffman’s letter, though I
agree that black-and-white images can be just as effective, if not
more so, than color images, especially when production costs are a
concern, I find it unfortunate that she can’t equate
photographs with editorial content (HCN, 10/3/05: Don’t ‘dumb and
numb’ readers). I may be biased, as a photojournalist, but I say,
keep those big images coming, HCN.
