You guys are seriously missing the point. -- Colin (talk) 18:48, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

Well, of course it is about camouflage, but I just don't find the result visually appealing, which is important for that kind of simple composition (that might be a matter of taste). And yes, the B/W is perhaps tricking our eyes here (though it is not that hard to see the animal...), but for such an image it is closer to reality (and better to reflect the actual level of camouflage) to have the image in color.
