Is not so hard to choose when a scene might be better suited for B&W or a color composition. Scenes where animals have colorful characteristics, or the entire scene has very saturated colors are better snapped in color, on the other hand, moody skies, harsh sunlight or interesting textures might be better suited for B&W
| Its easy to select when to leave color | Textures and abstracts can make interesting B&W shots |

When the weather takes a turn for the “worse”, low light, moody cloudy skies are usually the best opportunities to go for B&W. Remember you are trying to convey a mood, not any specific details of the animal or subject you are shooting.
Because of their color and textures, elephants, rhinos, gorillas and chimpanzees make for great portraits in B&W
Another trip to remember is that the more contrast the better so don't be afraid to shoot on harsh conditions which will accentuate this contrast.
