	A grayscale conversion algorithm tries to obtain a black and white image out of a color image. In the process, all pixels are treated equally, no matter their position or spacial significance. The only significant attribute is the color of the pixel. Since most images are taken/stored in Red, Green, Blue the algorithms found in the literature are focused on this representation.

 A grayscale image is an image that carries only intensity information. such an image, also known as black-and-white, is composed exclusively of shades of gray, varying from black (weakest intensity) to white (strongest intensity).
-A photograph is bearing a message to the viewer. This is why black and white photography will always have an extraordinary appeal. Its message is easier to transport, no being disturbed by other color impressions. Think about a wedding dress - doesn't look best in a black and white photo?

 Nowadays you almost always shoot in color and convert your images after that to black and white. This is where a good conversion software comes into discussion.
