FWIW, I was very taken by the B&W version. Truly a striking photo. My reaction to the color version is "ho hum." I have been accumulating bits and pieces of discussions from here on the list, articles in magazines etc on the whole subject of B&W conversion. Your B&W photo really got me thin

Without going back to the original B&W I first reviewed, If I remember I like its perspective better. The same leaning left edge post notwithstanding, the red thing has no place in the scene except to distract. The B&W immediately endeared me even more to my 16~45. :) Jack --- Fernando Terrazzino

Oh yeah - Black and white quite a lot more interesting, I agree The color is nice enough, but not nearly as striking... I didn't know there would be red objects - changes the whole thing - goes from being a commentary in BW to just a travel mag pretty picture in color... still nice though. a

lol, maybe the b&w was an unconscious move not to deal with the to blue or not to blue decision ;-) Ann's question makes me wonder, in general do ppl feel there are images that work better in B&W rather than color? To me this one works better in B&W, but my question is, have you ever find yourself

Dave, Godfrey, Norm, Rob, Gonz, JCO & Ann Thanks for the kind comments & suggestions, Ann, I usually feel the same way, but somehow this time I like the B&W better, I mean the composition is the same, but to me in this particular case the B&W emphasizes the structure and the chunks of ice, and ad

Wonderful upload! Textures are great. Only thing that I might try would be to crop the left end of the dock to eliminate the "leaning" larger pipe and the square dark thing on the opposite side. That would, also, take out the two smaller diameter rail posts. Jack --- Fernando Terrazzino <[EMAIL PR
