A timeless and impressive scene, Daniel. To me, the color palette feels very dreary and I wonder if this will actually work better in B&W.

This is a really interesting image. Part seems almost monochrome and then there is the area on the left with the good color. It all makes for a very dynamic presentation.

Wonderful depth for an image that is mostly monochromic and a great mood to it. To me the clash between the colored part and the rest of the image is too strong. I suspect that I am in the minority here.

I like the scene, and the conditions. Can't quite get hold of the color. It looks like you desaturated the right two thirds of the frame?
