Before and after....Sunset

Hi guys
scratched myself on barbed wire and liked the composition of this imige but i blew the sky.
Tried to save it but couldnt so i just messsed around and converted to monochrome. Always works
What do you guys and gals think?
Could the colour version be saved?

I would not worry about saving the color version at all, you have a hell of a conversion and I would leave it that way.

Have to say, really like the b&w, has a very creepy feel!

Wow, that B+W is great. Care to share the conversion, especially on the sky?

The B&W is definitely better. You did good.

I really like the black and white- the blownout sky part kinda looks like water anthe clouds inthat section look a bit like rough seas (the area above and to the left of the life guard hut).

I would think that if there is enough sky left to give you that B&W conversion you should be able to recover the color version equally well.

Nice image, amazing colors.

Nice shots, I like the last one.

Thanks guys
When i tried to save the colour version the sky always looked wrong so i overdid it and went mono!

Stav!

The B&W looks surreal, nice work

LOVE the black and white -excellent!

I had a go at editing the colour just to give it a go:

The B&W is sweet! The barbed wire and lonely beah house adds to the effect. Nice work, and good eye!
