I recently got back from a road trip up to the southern Oregon coast and back down via the northern CA coast. The area is exceptionally photogenic, and one could spend a lifetime in the area taking pictures. Here is one that I like of Glass Beach in Ft Bragg, CA. Feel free to comment and critique. I learn a lot from your comments.

I think the color really pops. Especially the tide pool in the foreground. In the B&W version, it does not stand out to me.

Definitely needs the color; the pools blend in and give the foreground too much of a 'flat', ground look in the B/W version
