Bored Fireman

I've been playing around with the desaturation software in CS2 and rather like this monochrome version of the fireman on 76079. I think that maybe monochrome suits the subject rather better than colour.

John,

I liked the colour one too, but I can see what you mean about the subject being suited to B&W. Somehow it seems more sympathetic to these old locomotives.

John -

Oh, that is nice. It seems very appropriate since B&W suggest more of the period compared to the color version.
