I don't normally post here, but thought this the best forum to ask in. Color, Split-Tone or B&W? And please, and C&C welcome.

The colors are lovely and would make a great print on the wall. But that split tone version has its own beauty as well.

One of my favorite places to visit when I'm up that way. Well done, Jack!

update: should have answered your question earlier, Jack. Color for me.

Nice to see you here Jack. Frankly, the last two are so close as to be identical. You can't bail on that sky, so the color version is the winner.

Jack, I think in this case that the color version is more effective, especially with the color on that bit of developing Virga.

What day were you there? I wonder how close we were to running into one another. I photographed at Mono early in the morning on July 2nd, though I wasn't in the usual spot at sunrise... nearby though.

I like the color better out of those two. If you darkened up the sky more on the B&W it may almost give it some stormy vibes.
