Fishing

Gotcha...fishing for opinions as to B&W, or Color version. This is a repost with a crop as seen in the Monochrome Thread.

Nice shot ... Tough decision ...

I am going to say the B&W. The B&W does more in the way for the wall textures and geometry. The subtle motion of the fan is also more noticeable. This image, to me, is more about form, texture, and light than it is about a specific "place."

Also, in the colored version, the sky looks a bit too much like pool water.

I like the B&W conversion because of the tonality of the shot....I am not fond of the bright blue skylight, maybe deepen it to look more light twilight.

-_- I wanted fishing pictures.

There's more tone and texture and shape than colour or contrast, so I'd go with the B&W.

However, put a red helium balloon floating up there, and I'd say colour.

I'm not a good one to ask becuase if it has nice tones it will always be B&W. This one deserves B&W.

A bit of a tough one because there is some good color contrast that you lose in the B&W, but since the image really is about shapes and line, not color, I'd have to say B&W.

No doubt about it ... tones and texture = BW FTW.

I'm liking the B+W myself. It's nice and sharp and the tones are pretty neat.
