I will try that zona. Sounds like an interesting crop idea. My only hesitation is then i will end up with a rather bleak foreground. Thanks for the input.

Go B&W except accents of color, like the bush in the foreground.
That is also another good option, Michel. Thanks.

Hello ... I love b&w myself, but the warmth in the colours has the edge, for me.

I love the B/W as it reminds me of pictures from the 1800's you see in logging history books. Good work.

Both are nice, but the color one rocks!

So often, with your shots, I would go B & W. The B & W shots you have in your gallery are absolutely outstanding. On this one though, I do like the added dimension that color provides. Fog shots are not easy; you have captured this one beautifully.
