On occasion I've taken a digital color shot that I wasn't entirely
pleased with and converted to grayscale where it becomes a much better
photo.  It' also a great way to develop you intuitions fro zone systems
since your can actually perform the thought experiment of switching
between colors and the pure tones of B&W.
 
BTW, can you submit a "born again" B&W created in this fashion (from a
scanned color film version) as long as you report it?  Or is this "too
much" manipulation?

I am wondering, if one is scanning anyway, iso 3200 fast films apart,
what are the reasons to shoot b&w, for general purpose picture taking?
Just curious.
