Here is a drive by shot on the road at a red light. I caught a guy having a smoke and a coffee. Great combination eh? You can see his cain just under his left leg.

Dear Jeremy,
Normally, I prefer monochrome. Also, sepia toning has a nice warmth that I've always liked.

So, I am naturally biased to favor this treatment.

In this case, I think you will have to admit that we have a borderline tonal merger all around our subject of interest - which would not be the case were it in color.

This happens to be one of those "rare instances" ;) where color may make a better shot.

Interesting image. I ran some Shadows/highlights on it and the separation between the subject and the bushes came up quite a bit.
