Marcy I have to ask you now which photo you prefere, the second or the color version of the fourth. Just curious to see which would be a more usable photo. Take care. Bob
Bob - Okay, I am getting a bit confused on the numbers and labeling. The second shot is the two swans swimming in unison, right? I love the romantic feel of it. The color version of the fourth is the one that was labeled "taking it easy" in the original B&W version, right? That one has an entirely different feel than the romance, harmony & peace in the unison/swimming shot. It ('taking it easy) is more of a heart-wrenching nature shot about a loving couple surviving hardship in winter. Of the two versions of the fourth shot, I like the color version better because it still has a B&W feel, but adds muted tones to the scene.
I like both; the swimming shot as well as the winter snow shot. I know my responses are real 'girly,' but those are the elements that speak to me in various photographs, and I like the way you have captured the relationship of these two swans (I am assuming it's the same pair - if not, I'm gonna pretend that's the case, for the sake of romance).
Since both are excellent & very appealing, I guess I'd need to know what the ultimate audience and purpose was, and what sort of message you want to convey if I were to pick a favorite. Are you saying you can only use one? If so, can you tell me more about your goal & maybe I can be more helpful? I love them both, so I wouldn't get rid of either one if possible.
