I am a colour person, I tend to like pictures in colour (maybe because that's the way I see things ... a friend of mine, a B/W photographer, tells me he "sees in black and white", I guess people "see" differently). Appealing scene. The cannon looks so big! |

I find this immediately appealing as a nicely composed grouping. The second version doesn't change that much and although I like the bw conversion, I'm less in favor of the vignette. |

I'm with Kroburg on this one. The cannon here looks black, in the B&W version it is a cowardly grey. And teh cannon acrries the shot, plus the people next to the house and stairs. The other people behind the cannon are all a dsitractor, in particular the 20th century citizens.
But overall a nice shot. |

Had a look at both several times, but to be honest: can't tell which one I like most. I think if to choose, I should pick the coloured one, but that is partly because of the vignette on the B&W (I don't like the vignette). On the other hand, on the coloured one there is a grass section with almost blown-out highlights, looking better on the B&W.
Both images are very nice, telling something of the USA history. Only other thing that is slightly distracting are the modern visitors on the background, if you could clone these out, would be great. |
