Bicycle and door

would appreciate any comments or critiques to help improve. don't

spare my feelings! have posted the same photo in Black and white and

would like to compare the reactions of the community. i can't decide

which i prefer.

Great red's ,congrats .

Dylan, I like both versions, but my preference is the color. I think in this instance the color adds something to the atmosphere that I'm not getting in the BW. It adds a certain richness to the textures of the building and the green in the cobblestones. Also the red of the chained bicycle with it's bent tire seems to say something more. 

Very funny! The bicycle is continuation of the red door.

Hi Dylan,

I like both versions but feel the colour one is stronger, mainly due to the visual impact of the red door leading into the red bike.

Very well seen and captured.

Aivar, thanks for looking. Even I was surprised at how vivid the colours were. I didn't even have to mess with the saturation.

Tony, thanks for taking the time to comment. Its appreciated.

Ana and Les, thanks very much for your comments. The fact that the red of the door stops just where the bicycle starts is what made me stop and take the photo, and I guess that is a bit lost in the B/W.

thanks for looking
