It's interesting to contrast the two resulting images. To me, the b&w works so effectively as an abstract about light, lines, and shadow. The composition is really wonderful. In the color version, it is abstract, but I am more into it as a good example of ICM.
@taffy That was my feeling in the end! I have a bunch I took of the same spot, trying to get those lines nice and smooth. I have one that is not so smooth and a bit more realistic. May play with that some. I love ICM as it's not that hard to do and it creates such a wonderful abstract effect.
