A Desert Drama

I wonder how is the color version?

To me is for sure that bw comes with more artistic feeling,I see not quite a drama in this,is dynamic and very well chosen this scarf to amplify visual impact,also grey tones look more better than color version,just my opinion.

i thing the bw is better, more elegant.... nice location

The two images have different impact. The color is more of a glamour/fine art image and has significantly more visual tension than the B&W. The B&W is significant more dramatic than the color. The  reaction to the B&W is "What is happening here?", this reaction is significantly more subdued with the color image.

No question, the bw version is in my eyes better. In the color version the colors are  dimmed. I dont see any drama here, even the opposite: a dance of happiness, because of the temperature, the emotions of beeing alone in the desert. Best regards. hen Ry

Hi Radu, Niki, Jim and Hen

Thank you very much for your visit and your opinion. I felt towards the B&W version and now I know more why.

Beautiful pose and composition. Love the effect of the 'flying' Scarf. Congrats.

The black and white wins my vote. Taking photographs in bright sunlight is always difficult. It seems you did it effortlessly. A fine image indeed.

A most charming and very classic desert nude. Great b/w conversion and should you lose your way, she has a compass on her arm to guide you back home again. I love it!
