Another take on my last image. While the color version is more subtle and realistic, I think this may have a better graphic and abstract effect. Your thoughts?

yes, I think that b&w works better - it emphasizes the repeated pattern and is indeed more abstract.

a lot of intricate detail here - I like the B&W treatment, though the whites look a touch dull

Both work very well, but I prefer the color version. The slight gradient in colors add a lot for me.

Both look good Navin but I think I prefer the color version with the warm light adding a nice contrast in the scene. This has a very abstract feel to it. Well done both of them.

I looked back and forth between both images several times. I think I like the b&w a little better. The larger version helped me make up my mine because of the detail you can see in it.

Have to vote for the color version, Navin. This one is quite graphic, but doesn't give my eyes anywhere to rest.

I prefer the B&W. To my eye, it has a stronger abstract look and feel. Both work well, but the B&W works better for me. Real nice image!!

I gotta say I'm not crazy about it, as an abstract, I think the dark patch at top and smaller one at left seem out of place and there's not enough separation between the tree trunks to contrast with the ground.

I like the abstractness of this. If you look at it long enough, you start to see patterns in there. Nice one.

My vote is for the black and white. I liked the color version and BTW, I liked the story.
