gallery
I have a gallery showing in July at the NOW ArtSpace at 3977 Tennyson St. in Denver. The best part is they participate in the First Fridays events and I can set up my own events for the gallery. Looks like I am going to have to figure out which photos to hang up and that I am not good at.

Hell I am not good at whether to go color or b&w on some of my photos

wadda ya guys think on these

I'm partial to the BW photos. They have a bit more drama and I just like BW in general. Good luck on your showing!

B&W in my view...

You might try lightening the shadowed areas a tad.

I like the B&W (great clouds) of the 1st one (with more detail needed in the shadows), and the color of the 2nd one (again with a little more detail in the shadows).

On the first, its B&W hands down. Its lets the clouds pop and the rustic nature of the building fits the B&W well.

On the second I'm not so sure that's the right answer. The colors of the rust and the exposed pine tell a story and they're lost when you convert to B&W.

If you need to keep the show in one format, based on what you've shown, I'd chose color.

While you're in the neighborhood, stop into Bentwave Gallery at 4426 Tennyson and say hi to Chris Rice. He hosted several of us last year.
