In the old film days you could have shot it with a green filter and turned the trees white. As it is, I like the color version better. Canon 7D | EF 24-105L | EF 70-300 | EF 400 5.6L

I agree that there could be more tonal contrast between the blues and greens, but are you sure about white trees? Craig

Thanks for your comments! I think I agree with you in this case. In the color version my eye is attracted to the blue, but in the b&w version, I notice the natural lines and shapes more. Also the b&w photo has a more timeless feel for me. Craig
