BW or Color?

Which makes for a stronger image?

The black and white one, I think!
How to you even begin to shoot for an HDR with a fast moving train???

At first I wanted to say the B&W because I am not too keen on the HDR look on colour pictures in general. But just looking at the B&W, the picture looks very busy and I think it would be hard to guess that it is a speeding train in the foreground. So, the colour version is stronger, I think...:scratch:

I like them both.. I guess im not much help.. I am having a hard time deciding..

Hmm, I prefer the B&W version .. but, maybe merge them into selective colour, with the train in colour and the rest in b&w?

I think either can hold it's own.

In this case I prefer the effect of the HDR on the color version. It gives it a more industrial feel with the rustic colors.

I like the colour version

I like the B&W version a lot!

How about a faded color version...one with *almost* no color?

Thanks everyone- this helps!

B&W for me!!

the color version is a bit to saturated for me...nice job on this one!!!
