Ancient Beginnings + Beaded

Here are two pictures that I made black and white. I don't usually do black and white so I have both of the color photos to compare. I still think I like the color photos better. What do you think?

1) Ancient Beginnings


2) Beaded

 

wow, the flower in black and white is stunning and then i see the color and its almost impossible to chose one i like better, very good job

 

Thanks! I like both of them but I still think I like the colored better.

 

I have to agree, I like the colored one better. Not to say that I don't think that the B&W isn't a great shot as well. How much work did you have to do to make the color's that vibrant on the flower?

Oh, lets not forget the other picture, I really like the B&W version. I think it just does the shot more justice.

 

I really didn't have to do to much. The flower itself was very vibrant and colorful to begin with. I just messed around with the contrast a bit and got that.
