    I wouldn’t say one was better than the other, they both have quality’s to recommend them. The B&W version feels wonderfully old, like a scene from an Arthur Conan Doyle novel. The colour version feels more modern but none the less atmospheric and brooding.

    It’s also really nice in color. Love the greens.

    Yeah, they both are quite nice, and I’d probably give the edge to the B&W one.

    The light is magical here, I think the colour helps that, it creates more atmosphere.

    I love night shots and there is much to commend both. I do however love the colour shift you get like you mentioned with the different light sources….a much more surreal feel than black and white….not better just different

    Beautiful. I think I like the color version a little better. Something about that misty green that’s very cool.

    I like it. I like the misty feeling, the green tones, the light through the trees, the silhouettes, the calm and the cold… I like it.

    Wonderful, wonderful shot – I tried to take a similar photo recently – http://blog.formidablephotography.com/spirit-of-the-blitz/ – but didn’t manage to do anywhere good a job technically. I intend to go back and re-take the photo – if it’s anywhere near as perfect as this I’ll be very happy.
