Evening Light - Black and White

Marnie @golftragic asked if I had tried todays shot in black and white. I hadn't, but decided to give it a go and post it in my topics album.

Here is the colour version, which do you prefer?

The sand looks even more like snow in black and white doesn't it.

Just off to bed now as it is almost midnight.

@golftragic Here you go Marnie I did a black and white version just for you. Which do you prefer. http://365project.org/onewing/365/2017-10-15

Sublime zen-ness

[Beryl Lloyd]

Give me the colour version any day Babs !

[Chris K]

both nice but I do prefer the gentle colours

[Sally Ings]

So moody and has a totally different atmosphere to the colour version. For me the texture of the sand is more pronounced here.

[gloria jones]

Looks very atmospheric in b&w :)

[Jennifer]

ooh yes, nice in the b/w! I like the sand textures

[Hazel]

Colour for me!

[Peter]

Interesting comparison Babs looks more dramatic in b&w:)

[Pat Knowles]

Looks lonely & perhaps you would feel like going home instead of settling down on a rug with a book!

[sally agnew]

Love the textures here but loved the appeal of the gentle lighting and colours :)

[FBailey]

Like the b&w but prefer the colour version

[Dee_3]

Great B&W

[Suzanne]

Looks more dramatic but I prefer the colour version

[Peter H]

I always like b&w.

[Rachel]

This looks like a moonscape. Very nice.

[Marnie]

Oh yes, the b&w for me, shows up all those beaut textures so well.

[Connie Little]

I like the colour version.

[Babs]

@golftragic Glad you like it. The atmosphere is so different between the two shots isn't it.

[Nicole Campbell]

Works so well, great moody feel to it

[Marnie]

@onewing Yes it is. Never ceases to amaze me.
