I think that the photo being in B&W helps hide it. It might not be *as* hidden in color.
But, it's still better than just being solid gray. Also, when shooting at it, even if it's not as "hidden," if it takes a few more missed shots to correctly get the distance/range, then it's an advantage.
Which even in black in white it's not hard.
