Day 188, Benjamin Franklin, Statue at the Old Post Office, Washington DC, by Jacques Jouvenal, originally uploaded by solostandfound.
I faced down that dilema again, color or black and white? Of course I went pansey and did both. This is the sculpture of Benjamin Franklin in front of the Old Post Office in Washington DC. There is an argument here for both. I caught it at a great time of day since the Post Office was lit up nicely and gave the statue a nice contrast. But the Black and White does the same and forces you to focus a little more.
What do you think? Color? or Black and White?
Thanks for looking.

I actually like it better in color.
ReplyDeleteI like the color, too. I think the contrast between the warm light on the building and the blue of the sky adds a lot of depth. The black and white version is flat by comparison.
