Color?

[Billy27]

What do you think?
Color or b&w?

In my opinion, Billy27, I prefer the color image over the monochrome because there is a lack of detail in the building on the left side. In the monochrome it's just flat & gray. In the color version it has a little more texture. Having said that, I think I would like a little less saturation. The blue of the sky and the sea are a little overpowering for me.

Just my opinion...

I as well prefer the colour version but the colours seem very strong. Toning it back a bit will help!

Thanks for the advice. Back to lightroom to try it out.

i prefere the colored one, like the strong colors

Between the two, I have a mild preference for the black and white. But I suspect if the colors were a bit less saturated, more subtle in the color, I would go for that.

Like others have said, I'd go for a less saturated colour version.

I'll for sure go for the BW. i wonder what it'll look like with some sepia, some grains and a certain amount of vignetting.

The colour one is beautiful, the colouring is very sharp and vibrant, whereas in black and white that's obviously not there. If I were you I'd go for the colour!

I really like the color version although the blue sky and water is a bit strong my eye tend to focus on the blue and not the building. I think it is a bit distracting. If it where toned down I think it would be wonderful. I love the building, think it is very interesting. Although I love the black and white but I love B&W pictures, so that is just my opinion. Both are great photos.
