Some photos from my last youtube video.
Do you prefer Color or B&W?
On these shots I like B & W better. The contrast is good and shows off the water fall. Both nicely done.
I prefer the color versions because of the greater detail in the surrounding rock and pine forest. The entire photo stands out.
The dark and light is so heavy on the darks. It is not actually black and white. The lighter color works much better for me as you have edited.
I would vote color on these ones. Both are great!
Maybe I would go for B&W if you try to edit it to increase the contrast in the rock and top trees shadows, to show more detail.
Color on this shot. Nice.
I like b&w but in this case the image needs work to make it look better. The dark areas lack details and I would dare to say that the bright areas could be toned down just a bit. Contrast is way over the top.
I like both color & B&W. The bright sky in #1 is a distraction.

#2, the lighter more detailed shadows appeal to me more than the other two images with darker shadows.
Thank you everybody for all the constructive comments :-)
