The colors of photography are black and white

Here are some of the 4x5 black and whites I've been shooting lately. Number 16 is my personal fav. I spent close to an hour walking down the tracks and climbing down through the blackberry bushes behind a chemical plant to get to this spot and another 20 minutes or so setting up the shot when I heard the train coming. I had about 10 seconds to calculate my setting and expose the film before the locomotive moved out of the shot.
