"Toronto Cubes"

"Toronto Cubes"

We spent last week in Toronto enjoying the sights of the city, eating some great food and trying to capture some magic!

Lots of images to process. So far, I am liking this one.

Color or B&W?

All comments are welcome.

The color version holds my attention longer. There is a better feeling of depth in that rendering for my eyes. Fun shapes.

I like them both Tex. I am having a hard time choosing between them.

Color for me however I could be swayed if you worked on the B/W more.. Since B/W images of this nature is open to artist interpetation or artistic licsense. I might reduce some of the midtones.. bring up the whites and add alittle contrast to the cloud reflections in the windows maybe a red filter possibly. Just a thought.

Dean - Thank you for the comments. I don't see the post where you worked on the image in Silver Effects. I read the email notice of your post while I was out of the house, but do not see it here now. You are not overreaching! I am always wanting to learn.

If you deleted it, please by all means re-post it. Many thanks, Dean.

Tex.. yes I put up an edit and then felt really funny about adding to the thread that way without discussing with you first.
As per your reply I am adding it again . It is just a qucik edit off the copy of the jpeg brought into silver effects (which I love) with some of my ideas..

Reagrds,
Dean

Dean - Thanks for posting this and taking the time to work the image! It's interesting to me, because I also used Silver Effects Pro for my black and white conversion! Certainly, you are much better at the program than I am. Your edit is much more dynamic for sure. Just curious, if you remember which filter you used? Do you do many local adjustments? I think I did use one on the red or blue filters on mine, but it is hard to remember it all! I really appreciate you posting this and taking the time. Many thanks! Tex
