Hey Pramit,

Well I won't be much help, I like them both equally. I think they both work really well.

While I'm leaning towards the color version, Like them both.
The B&W has a good range of tones & cloud drama.
I think it's time I visited that spot again!

Thanks for posting

Dan

Colour for me. Both are great but the colour version has the edge IMHO.

It's just me, but I would only once in a blue moon consider removing the colour from a landscape photo, so the colour one is my pick.
Looks like a great spot. I'm wondering if it's possible to move to the left to a position where the background cliffs don't interfere with the shark fin stack? I think it would be a stronger shot if the fin had a clean background.

As nice as the color is, in this case: B&W. I find myself lingering longer over it to study the tones, especially of the circus of clouds. While the sunset colors are cool, they are commonplace, while in this case this image is all about tones.

Beautiful scene. I like both very much but the slight edge for a big print on my wall goes to the BW.

Also, I think the comp can be made more powerful by cropping from the bottom to where the bottom of the frame comes to just slightly below the right edge of the incoming wave.

Both are very nice but my preference would be for the B&W. I really like the grass tones and drama in the skies. If I was going to do anything else I might dodge the far cliffs just a tad to make them pop a little more.

regards

I really like them both! Wonderful shapes in the clouds, and the composition works very well with that deep V on the right formed by the cliff and grassy edge. The boulder on the far left leads up to the pinnacle in the ocean and zig-zags back and forth as well. Really well done.

great capture. the color one does it for me. more depth to it somehow and the warmth of the colurs fits the setting, in my humble opinion. thanks for sharing.

Wow. Tough call. I'm leaning towards the color version. Although the conversion to BW creates truly fascinating tonal character and interplay, overall, the colors you captured (or created) in the sky create too much drama to squander. Also, the color creates a greater sense of depth, a characteristic that serves to further accentuate this work's already powerful composition.

So: color is my vote. But I'm going to rush to hit, "Send Reply" before I change my mind.

Yep, color for me. You captured some seriously nice colors in that sky and on the rocks and IMHO it seems a shame to let it go to waste.

Beautiful shot!

Color for me as well. While the tones in the B+W version are nice, the color in the sky and rocks do it for me.
