ManuelaR from Hainburg (Frankfurt/Main), GermanyThey both have their very own appeal but as always I have a weakness for the dramatic b&w :) 27 May 2009 10:14am @ManuelaR: thanks Manuela -- i usually prefer color -- but this mono has a beauty of its own!! MrsAmber from West Wickham, United KingdomInteresting to see the 'original'. This is a staggeringly beautiful shot and my opinion is it's better in B&W. My shot of the day so far. 27 May 2009 10:39am @MrsAmber: thank you Amber!!! yes -- as this was taken with a point and shoot, the coloring was a bit strange. but now that it is converted to b/w -- i think it makes a stronger visual statement!! bluechameleon from Vancouver, CanadaThis is so beautiful in black and white. The details are so clear and this reminds me very much of Ansel Adams style. Nice work! 27 May 2009 12:13pm @bluechameleon: sincere thanks to you BC!! he is my idol and inspiration -- thanks very much!! :D @Eleftheria: thank you Eleftheria!! cheers! vu@granby - Wolfgang from Granby, Québec, CanadaGood we have the people at the foot of the cliffs to give us some sense of scale.
