I did the calculations. I have 21 b&w pictures to date in my flickr account. That represents only 1.3% of my 1,655 photos (public and private). There are occasions that I would convert a colored photograph to b&w but again, that would be rare.
To me, a monochrome recreates the feeling of timelessness. And that this musician was playing a rebab, an ancient 2-string fiddle, only plays to this theme.
