yup, I like it. I always find it's hard not to photograph sunsets, and that's a nice one. I'd like to see a nice contrasty black and white version of it though.

who, me?

well.. looking at the original color one.. it is great!
(close eyes, scroll down, count to 5, open eyes)
looking at the bw one.. it is great!

that answer your question? ;)

I hate comparing two shots that I like. Each one has it's use, it's own mood.
Since I've gone digital, I've only converted a few shots to BW, whereas I did a lot of BW film work. As I said, I've never really thought about doing a sunset in bw, but now that I think of it, i have seen a few.

Two days ago, I did a pile of sun ray shots. Haven't had time to process them yet, but I will flip the color out of a few of them to see what they look like, and let you know.

yeah. i think the clouds lend themselves to B&W conversion even though you're losing the colors. I'll have a go at converting it, and see what happens.
