Is Black and White Photography Making A Comeback?

There is once again a certain cachet attached to black and white photography. Skin blemishes don't tend to be as apparent in black and white photographs as they do in color. Black and white photographs tend to be less 'busy' and as a result can be easier on the eye. Many amateur photographers have found that they have been accepted as 'serious' photographers since taking up black and white photography. Perhaps this is because in the modern era black and white photography is somehow seen as more 'artsy' than its color counterpart.
