Colorado Mountains

I love the simplicity of this scene but I couldn't decide if i preferred the naturalness of this SOOC shot or the Old West look of the sepia http://www.flickr.com/photos/28722085@N08/7107922479/in/photostream
What do you think?

Beautiful! I prefer color. Have you tried black and white?

@kerristephens The B&W just didn't do it for me.

[Terry]

I like that lone tree, against that sky.

[Rick Schies]

I am a big fan of B/W and Sepia, but for this one, I really enjoy it in full color. A lovely view, and of course a tree, one of my favorite subjects.

Love them both, Allison .... but, here I go being different again. LOVE that sepia. And the simplicity of both!!

[Disha Parekh]

I love the colour version. And you are right, it is stunningly simple. Love the composition and positioning of the tree too.

i was about to comment what a lovely scene this was and then read your text about your sepia shot...the words 'tranquil' and 'soothing' go hand in hand with this shot.........i'll nip over to the sepia shot now !

[Allison Williams]

@phil_howcroft I posted this on my flickr account but figure you wouldn't be going back there, so here it is again: Thanks Phil for taking the time to look and comment. I think I like the artistry of this one (sepia) better, but the colored picture captures the beauty of the scene so well.
