By providing examples across the arts and humanities, Allsup promotes a vision of education that is open, changing, and adventurous at heart. He contends that the imperative of growth at the core of all teaching and learning relationships is made richer, though less certain, when it is fused with a student's self-initiated quest.

However, it is still an element to be considered while shooting, because color affects what greys, whites, and blacks you get as a result.
