A woman warns beachgoers that their clothing choices are going to send
them to hell, 1980s.
BTW we had color film back then, WTF?
No reason for this to be B&W.

A lot of people shot black and white, especially journalistic
photographers, because their work was likely to only be printed in black
and white anyway.

Black and white film was cheaper, both just to buy, but also to
develop. A lot of people shot black and white, especially journalistic photographers, because their work was likely to only be printed in
black and white anyway.
but she sees
b/w photos as being more artistic.

He might not if he'd lived to see people using
smartphones to take photos of everything, everywhere!!!
I have a baby picture from 1995 in B&W.
....probably just taken with a cheap old camera.

Good Lord, the 1980s? That ship sailed two full decades earlier, church-lady.
Nice classic Dodge Challenger in the background, and a pretty sweet
truck camper. Good times. The combination of the lady with the sign,
the bikin-wearer with her legs spread, and the confused-looking dude
with the mullet all combine to make this a great pic.

My daughter changes all of her best photos to b/w to print out, she
thinks they look better... she's only using an iPhone phone but she sees
b/w photos as being more artistic.

That's another consideration, even people who were just taking photos
on their own, some people still bought black and white film simply
because they preferred it.
........loves turning colour photos in to b/w, printing
them out and putting them in to frames. <shrugs>

In a nutshell.....In earlier days, all film was sent off to a lab, and
then came film processing equipment located in stores like Kmart.

If high quality prints were wanted, the film had to be sent to a lab.
Not all film types could be processed in stores then. I have no idea
if stores process film these days...most likely not with digital.
