Default Bath time

I want to have one of these framed for mom's birthday.
The question is - Colour or B&W






18mm
f4.0
ISO-800
Shutter 1/100

These are just great. I especially like the B&W.

Hi gturner, great bath time picture and based on the two available options I'd go for the black and white version.

Awww how sweet is that. If it's for mom, for me it's colour, but both look great. Lovely captures.

Dave.

I have put a tighter crop on it and it will join a series of 300mm x 300mm B&W images with her siblings in the dining room.




thanks for the input everyone

Shes adorable

I'm not surprised, it was a magnificent picture,well done

You're cropping the picture - looks good - but consider cloning out the pipe on the left and the toy on the right

regards Steve
