Another shot from our day in London. There's a sepia version here which seemed like a good idea when I took the shot but I think I prefer the b&w. Let me know which you prefer.
Canon EOS 20D, 21mm, f/22, 10sSec, ISO 800
Comments:
I like both but if I would have to decide I would say the b&w shot! It seems to be a bit more calm and natural but also more dramatic - if you know what I mean!
I have to agree with Marina, it looks dramatic in B&W and gives the whole photograph an appearance of a shot taken in the city, whilst retaining a calming effect.
I walked past this spot a couple of weeks ago. The lights under the benches caught my eye as well, and I made a mental note of the photographic opportunity.
If I remember correctly, the lights under the benches were blue?
I like the way you've composed this - using the rail to lead the eye in and the 'Gabriel's Wharf' as background.

B&W for me also, the seating drags your eye forward, great shot.

I also vote for the B/W. I love the repetition of the benches, and the lighting of the curves in the railing on the right.

Definitely the black and white version, it has much more impact.

The Black/White one definitly! The light as a better glow! Love it!

i guess im the only one that likes the sepia version. b&w is good too, but the sepia one does it for me.

Great Light !!! The bw and the perspective is perfect. But the light under the "banc" is wonderful! S.
