A BW of a previous post. Does this shot have more impact than the

colour version?

Hi Peter,

I searched your portfolio for the color version of this but didn't see it, so I can't really comment if this version works better. I do like this very much and I think it works great as shown here. A real nice street shot.

Hi Peter - B&W version for me - I think it has much more impact. (thanks for the Warhol comment!) Cheers Richard

Thanks for looking. Here is the colour version.

Excelente luz, B/W. y un bellisimo encuadre, perfecta composicion, un cordial saludo Peter,.

Hi Peter, Your conversion to a high contrast B&W does indeed have more impact than the original colour image. Don't know why, but it makes me think that she does not move her lips while she reads like many do. Interesting composition and in B&W it makes me stop, look and think longer. Good work! Regards, Paul

I dont know about the color-version, but this photo is really nice in black and white; Well done!

(thanks for your com. on my gull, you were right, you see them everywhere :)

Very nice contrast of the still person against the dynamic figure drawn on the wall. It took me a while though to realize that the thing on the wall is part of a face! A small surprise adding even more interest to this shot. I'd prefer to see the shadow on the left side a bit more exposed, but it works well as it is too. Cheers!

Good, very good work!
