Also if your going to do this a lot, its good to have a constant percent of red, green, and blue #'s so your photography tends to look less digital and more like the older but more respected darkroom shots.

Something about the camera can't really capture all the details? Correct me if I'm wrong please! hmm, I’ve read somewhere that you should take the photos in colour, and then convert to B&W in photoshop.
