I love how the angled clouds at the top and the angled taller grasses in the foreground make for a right facing 'arrow' that leads my eye into and through the image. All the lines in the shot really make it interesting too. A nicely moody pic indeed.

it's beautiful

couldn't be better

but isn't it more attractive in color?

 

[Hertz van Rental]

It's very flat in colour. It just works better b&w.
But if you insist...

 

[Al-Wazeer]

In my opinion, the colored is better, little bit of saturation and contrast and will be perfect!

 

[Hertz van Rental]

Look again at the tonal contrasts in the b&w and what they contribute to the structure of the image.
It just doesn't happen in the colour version.

 

[MissMia]

I love the B&W! Gorgeous image Hertz.

 

[icassell]

I agree ... the B/W is far superior IMHO. I really like the image.

 

[Tangerini]

Lovely.

Anty expressed this better than I could.

The color version lacks the B&W's moodiness. To my eye, in color the image simply loses its oomph.

I like the composition and the assist the sky lends to this image.
I really enjoy the light play in the other image as well, but, I think perhaps the sky lets it down a little. Mother Nature does test us.
Good job with the camera on both.

 

[Mike_E]

Looks like you nailed it to me.

A thought though, do you have a dog?

 

[Hertz van Rental]

No. I'm a cat person.

 

[Harmony]

Hmmm, I like it! The horizon is (upon scrutiny) quite level, but when I'm not looking closely, it feels crooked!

 

[Sulfur]

That's the clouds working on you there I really like the B&W version. It's something I would but on my wall for sure.

 

[Al-Wazeer]

i've done some editing in the picture if u don't mind ( the colored version )

i'm really sorry if i'm annoying you!
