Let's admit it, colour carries the majority of shots

and I don't believe that mine are any exception. That's why black and white photography is generally more artistic and by artistic I am not talking about the technical perfection of a shot. So much more care has to be taken over the composition.

The attached photo was taken during a recent visit to New Zealand. I have never seen a succulent like this before and that was my only reason for taking it. It's not a great photograph and its only interest lies in the actual subject matter.

This would look great cropped down to fill the frame with just the plant, let the colour and texture be the star of the show.

I agree with MWAC entirely.

I agree. I would like to take only B&W shots, but when I see the beautiful colors, I can't make myself change them. Especially my pics at the Gulf of Mexico.
