Can't make up my mind which one to go for. Which do you think wins here? These were taken in Edinburgh. Oh! And please comment on the photo too! :)

thanks!
Martin.

I prefer the colour as the greens play well (lawns, roof, hillside.)

The duotone seems kind of flat in comparison.

Love the archecture of the building front and centre. Would make a great shot by itself. I like the scarcity of windows in the upper floors.

I definitely prefer the color picture. The red and greens are very nice in this picture. Good work.

Definitely the color. The B&W just doesn't do this scene justice.

No doubt...the color version hands down.

My opinion seems to be minority here, but, anyway, I like B&W more. I think it make the picture more interesting. In fact, I would try to keep colors for the building in the center.

Between the two, i like the colour version better. The BW-version seems a bit dull to me. Try darkening the mid-tone shadows, perhaps it will give a better result

no comparison - color all the way!

As rich and as pretty as the colors are I'd go with the color.

Am I the only one though who feels something wrong with the lines though....maybe an ever so slight lean to the left perhaps?
