Visit to Alkatraz Prison.

I found it quite a sobering and somber place. I did the whole tour, looking at all the cells and the ones where the famous were locked up. However, the highpoint of the visit was that I was there on a rare day when the "Hospital Wing" was opened to visitors. The guide iterated that this was unusual. The image of the "Hospital Wing" seemed, to a certain extent, as I might have expected, but seeing the other areas, brought home the level of treatment that could be offered. Especially the "Operating Theater". Naturally this Whole experience dried out "Black and White" to me. Bright light and colour just did not seem a natural way to represent these images. Does black and white convey the right atmosphere here?
