Colour or B&W?

I prefer the colour, has a more fairytale quality to it.

A few from a day out at Castlewellan Forest Park

No 4 is great, framing the shadows and also the steam from the horses nose plus the girl looking back are both cool touches. It gives the photo a bit of a story I think.

Thanks, you're right; I didn't do much to these at all, just played with which colour converted to black and white best. The sun was really low in the sky and I exposed for the brickwork. I must go back and try again, though the weather looks increasingly grotty

The weather in this country is generally grotty, I dream of shooting somewhere in the world that has awesome light on a regular basis. I wonder where in the world the best locations would be for light? There must be certain places where the atmosphere is just generally better for it. India for example, the sunsets they have seem to be amazing.

Colour, B&W loses the magic between the groom and bride.

My wife says the same you see but I prefer the black and white. Ah well, majority wins. Thanks.

Thanks Mint Sauce. Oh and i prefer the colour version of your bride and groom shot but the B&W version still works too

Could be worse, some parts of urban China don't seem to get sunsets, the grey haze that is day just fizzles out. For what it's worth, I didn't see many decent sunsets in India (last December).

Mint_Sauce definitely the colour one as it gives a way nicer feel to the image, kind of dreamy

Somehow I had a 24hour holiday for supposedly quoting an image to which I could find no evidence of from another thread but that's another story...

Some more from the urbex earlier!

It was the 1st September when I last uploaded something to Flickr. I’ve been chomping at the bit to get out again, but with starting University and finally getting myself a job, I’ve had very little spare time.
