Cypress Swamp, choices

[BarryHamilton]

Another scene from the cypress swamp on that foggy winter's morning.
Giving you a choice of color or b&w. Just curious.

I really like them both. If you twisted my arm behind my back I'd go with the B&W just because it looks a little creepier.

I like both but favor the color version. The earthy tones to the color palette appeal to me. Neat place.

I get the creepier tone Kyle mentioned, but the first has just the right amount of color/saturation. Stunning image Barry, thanks for the view.

Hey Barry,

That's a sweet shot. For me it's #1, the color version reminds me of the colors the old 1900's painters, so I like that.

Color for me here too, great earthy tones, but for me the color helps bring the fog out more, it reads better as fog for some reason to my eyes. It gives it more depth.

 

[Martín el Escocés]

And me too, Barry, as Travis says.

Perhaps the solution is to look with head cocked to get the colour with the right eye and the B+W with the left..............

I usually love B&W images, but the black and white in this case seems to have erased something essential. I prefer the color, too.

Many thanks for your opinions, everyone! I appreciate them.
Seems to favor the color version, which is my pick as well.
