This is another view from my recent visit to Scotland. It is a panorama consists of a dozen separate shots. I'm interested to know what you think of this b&w conversion. Original coloured version here.

Very nice landscape. I like the B & W best.

I like this a lot and could see it hanging on a wall somewhere..! The coloured version doesn't hold the impact as much for me and the path drags my eye to the RHS, so the posted B&W version works best IMO.

Kind regards,

b&w for me, I bet it would look great as a large print.

It depends what you're going for I guess! The b+w has more drama and mood and is more artistic, but the colour one with the blue sky and sunshine would work well on a postcard.

I like both :biggrin:

A lovely shot anyway!

Another vote for the B&W - a great panorama :smile:
