I prefer this one for sure. I mean in gerneral IΒ΄m a fan of monochrome photogrpahy...
Besides this, this black and white version is much better than your coloured one

I prefer this one to the color one. The reason being the fact that it leaves a lot to the imagination. The viewer can use their imagination to determine what color the lights are. Therefore, it can become any number of pictures.

Kudos

I prefer this version (the black&white) to the other, although both are excellent. It may be down to the lack of border here - any chance of seeing the colour version borderless? I think this shot is better without one, it makes it more immersive. (:

Thanks Cerique You're right about the border. I will remove the border and update.

ItΒ΄s hard to say, I like them both. But I think I prefer this one. The black/white is tougher.

AndrewToPhotography In reply to stahlsz [2009-09-11 17:55:36 +0000 UTC]

Thanks I think so too. The colour one is a bit too soft.

I can't believe i actually both and had a good look flipping back and forth for a couple of minutes
Definitely has got to be this as i thought it had more contrast and looked so surreal! the string of UFO's above the buildings. Sure looks futuristic this one

tedzerds21 [2009-09-10 21:55:04 +0000 UTC]

Both are awesome, couldn't really say one is more prefered...... the b/w puts better focus on the texture and lighting of the buildings but the coloured version is so pretty. I don't know.

I prefer the B-W version more than the coloured one because it gives me more the classic style feeling which I like.

AndrewToPhotography In reply to R4p70r [2009-09-10 21:44:33 +0000 UTC]

Thanks pal. I think it's about personal preference. There is no wrong or right answer. I personally like the B/W version for the same reasons. Thanks for the too

Chopen [2009-09-10 20:51:54 +0000 UTC]

It's remains a great shot, but I do like the colored version more. Maybe it's because I've seen the skyline many times, but the colored version looks more appealing to me

AndrewToPhotography In reply to Chopen [2009-09-10 20:59:00 +0000 UTC]

Thanks mate Yeah others have said that too. I guess with a shot that oozes striking colours, then it should remain in colour.

Chopen In reply to AndrewToPhotography [2009-09-10 21:01:55 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, although a lot of other HK photos can be done in BW though...like those skyscrapers (from up close) and small (dirty) alleyways and such
