Color or BW?

I took some pics while vacationing down on the Yucatan peninsula - just south of Cancun on the Riviera Maya. I took a shot of a cruise ship on the horizon after sun-up and it was heading into a storm towards Cozumel. In PP I added some contrast and cropped it. I then converted the shot to BW. Not sure which one I prefer? Your comments much appreciated. Thanks for viewing!

B&W often tends to create a more dramatic image, HOWEVER, in this case that sunset coloring makes the color image more dramatic and appealing IMHO.

Love the color shot. The clouds appear more ominous and oppressive in contrast with the golden light below. Perhaps the B&W could be more dramatic at a higher rez, but, here, online, it's the color one.

Thank you for your feedback WaHawk, and I agree with you! I think I submitted the wrong photo to scrutinize. I think a wider FOV should have been submitted in the first place! :XD: Try this one.

Nice photo, another color vote, but I do like the BW as well, print and matte them together?
