    Do you choose to shoot color film and convert to black and white? If so, why do you do that?

    Yes, some images just look better in b&w than in colour. Shooting in colour also gives me the option of (in effect) applying colour filter effects after the fact by choosing which channel (red, green, or blue) to emphasize. In this particular picture, I mostly used the red channel, which does a nice job of rendering the sea and sky quite dark, just as using a red filter with b&w film would.
