Advertisement Posted April 24, 2007 Posted April 24, 2007 Hi zanydave, Take a look here Colour or B+W?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
semrich Posted April 24, 2007 Share #2 Posted April 24, 2007 In this case if it were my photo I would seriously consider color. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted April 24, 2007 Share #3 Posted April 24, 2007 Even viewing on this Dell screen at the office, definitely colour. What you get out of your DMR is amazing. Can't wait to see this at home Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stunsworth Posted April 24, 2007 Share #4 Posted April 24, 2007 Black and white for me - someone had to be different <grin> - which isn't to say the colour version is bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnwolf Posted April 24, 2007 Share #5 Posted April 24, 2007 The color gives better separation of the stones in the foreground. But if you boosted the blacks there, I might prefer the BW. Very beautiful image. John Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozmo Posted April 24, 2007 Share #6 Posted April 24, 2007 To me the greyscale image is much more inviting, and somehow works as a calm, balanced whole. My eye moves around the colour one anxiously trying to see what's going on, what's under the water... and I lose the sky. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuddel Posted April 24, 2007 Share #7 Posted April 24, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) Both are fine pictures, but in my opinion the BW is the better one. Regards, Andreas Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
beramos Posted April 24, 2007 Share #8 Posted April 24, 2007 Dave, in color is impressive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted April 24, 2007 Share #9 Posted April 24, 2007 Well worth looking at properly at home The sky in the colour shot can easily be enhanced using a grad filter in PS, should Dave wish to do this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
azzo Posted April 24, 2007 Share #10 Posted April 24, 2007 Dave, A very, very difficult question ! Both are fantastically treated. Well Done. Azzo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuny Posted April 25, 2007 Share #11 Posted April 25, 2007 Dave - Such wonderful mood, depth and mystery. Superb in either version. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cam2000 Posted April 25, 2007 Share #12 Posted April 25, 2007 Congatulations....... both stand on there own! Excellent nuances in this beautiful composition! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
biglouis Posted April 25, 2007 Share #13 Posted April 25, 2007 In my humble opinion: definitely colour. This is the kind of print I would happily hang on my wall, in a word, superb. LouisB Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
zanydave Posted April 25, 2007 Author Share #14 Posted April 25, 2007 Thank you all for your comments. Think I'm moving more towards the colour version myself. Dave Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkness30 Posted April 25, 2007 Share #15 Posted April 25, 2007 I cant decide, how about both? simply put impressive. Thanks Mehmet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
B&W Posted April 25, 2007 Share #16 Posted April 25, 2007 I like them both Very nice work! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigi bertolotti Posted April 28, 2007 Share #17 Posted April 28, 2007 BW is more "sentiment oriented", better expresses mood of some mysteryous loneliness... Color nice too, but "nature prevails"; I post my vote for BW. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alberti Posted June 3, 2007 Share #18 Posted June 3, 2007 BW is more "sentiment oriented", better expresses mood of some mysteryous loneliness.... B&W is my favorite. There is this element of typical mountain haziness. The focal point is the horizon, the 'what does it bring' moment. I measure the distance, is it changing, any rain. I also like the impression of a 'duotone' print, at least on my screen there is the hint of some sepia. In colour the focus is the stone and the shalow water. We measure the depth. The background magnifies the streak of sunlight and hence it signals 'good weather is coming' message to me. Being born under Saturn :-), I also prefer the B&W. albert Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Photoskeptic Posted June 3, 2007 Share #19 Posted June 3, 2007 BW for me. The clouds are more mysterious. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arminw Posted June 3, 2007 Share #20 Posted June 3, 2007 For me , this is definitely a B/W picture .. I can see it as a magnificent fine Art print on a wall . Well done ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
