Trees - is there anything here or not?

Just clicked on the color version to compare, and it's hard to believe it's the same tree. Wow! Just noticed that difference.

Have you a preference?

black and white ...
we live our everyday lives ''in color.'' black and white to me, tells the viewer a different story.

as an aside,
if you look at the comparison between manny212's 'will it ever stop raining in miami?' (think it is in city/landscape section)...the black and white tells a vastly different (more interesting) ''story'' than the color version.

lol, just my newbie-photographer $.02

Cool, thanks! All $00.02s are good. And appreciated!

This is nice. It works for me because the tree isn't a "perfect" tree. The tree is unusual enough to be interesting to look at, if that makes sense. As far as color or B&W go: B&W for "fine art" and color for "decoration." In other words, the B&W would look nice in a gallery and the color would look nice as wall art in a home or office.
