Black & Removes all color from the image.
White (Note: It’s really gone! You can’t get
it back later on!!) But it does more
than just de-saturate the image – it
emphases some colors over others
so that a caucasion face comes out
more white than grey.
Sepia Removes all the color from the
image, and then turns the black
parts into a beautiful light brown,
reminiscent of 1800’s-style photos.
(See note above regarding color not
being recoverable.)

Figure 5-45: A time exposure of downtown Los Angeles on a rare clear evening taken
using “Standard” (left) and “Autumn” (right). I kind of like the extra reds added to this
kind of a shot.
