Which do you prefer, the color or the black & white version?

The color version for me; kudos on the exposure.
It's a brilliant architectural image incorporating cityscape and suspension bridge!

I'm a huge fan of black and white, but I say color for this one.

And I agree withe TheObiJuan, amazing shot!

Thanks, guys. Actually I didn't nail the exposure. Thank god for RAW!

I'm leaning toward the color. I think it's the contrast between the earth tones of the buildings and the blues and grays of the sky and bridge.

I choose a colour. If B&W, that can be sepia sepia ...?
But my wife likes B&W!

Oh, they're both nice. It's close, but I'll say B&W.

Breathtaking as usual Adam....so good to see your magical moments again!!

A wee bit more contrast in the B/W and I'd frame them both large. Beautiful shot!!!!

To me, both send out a different message, the color is vibrant, ongoing life....the B/W is a moment left behind, revisited.....a frame stopped life.....just absolutely beautiful both ways.


They both look like paintings!!

Good to see you again.

Take care.

Thanks for the comments, folks. The overall opinion is for the color version.

And great to hear from you, Bella!
