Good Question. When Dorothy was in Kansas, it was shot in black and white. But when she was in Oz, it was shot in color. The entire movie was printed on color film, though, so the "black and white" parts could be not actually black and white, but sepia (dark brown) and white (don't believe me? go watch it again), which gives those scenes a softer, warmer look and suggests old sepiatone photographs.
