BW or ... ?

[FuryofNature]

I like this shot, but can't decide which is better. The black and white or the blue one. Which one works better for the photo. Is the pose ok?

Thanks,

I like black and white a lot better. I like the colors in the second, but it just seems TOO unnatural and..stark.

Ok...I'm leaning toward BW too. I just really like the color that the wall turned out. Maybe I can put the boy in blach and white and the wall in color.

Or you could try a hybrid...something kinda like this (hope you don't mind)



But personally, I still like black and white better. =)

 

[FuryofNature]

I don't mind. That looks cool. without the blue on his face.

Black and white... :thumbup:

I actually like the blue one - it looks like a photo from the inside of a CD cover or like an MTV shot or something.

Is this a good thing?

Is this a good thing?

Yes! I'm with Rob on this one.

But it depends what effect you're after. If you want a nice, relaxing photo then the B&W but if you want something with a bit more edge and energy...

 

[FuryofNature]

I like relaxing and I like edge....this photo is tweaking my brain.

Maybe Ill just use it both ways.

Theres more like it, its kind of part of a series, over in the generally galery under photopoetry, if your interested.

I prefer the blue one too.


Feels much richer.:thumbup:
