Here in my car
I feel safest of all
I can lock all my doors

Panchromatic B&W film records all colors of light in the same tones of grey. The light intensity (the number of photons per square inch) is what determines what shade of grey gets produced on film. Colored filters are used to produce contrast between different colored objects that reflect the same amount of light. Yellow and Orange filters yield subtle effects where the yellow filter will slightly darken a clear blue sky and will separate shades of green. A Red filter produces a very strong effect and greatly increases contrast, turning blue skys to nearly black. An Orange filter is midway between the effects of Yellow and Red.
