The point is not moot. The point is that Nat Geo won't publish anything that sucks.

I guess that would include all of the images you have posted on this forum then.
Eliminati ng the sky, etc. makes me favor the color one in this instance.

Hi Bob, for me the b/w looks like the building has been removed from its environment, perhaps like a good photo of a miniature building that one might see in a catalog for h/o scale model train layout and is a nice technical photo, however, the color version looks like a building that one could enter and do something useful in or interact with. It’s pleasant Environmental surroundings also gives us a clue to its size and relationship to our human scale, while the b/w does not. I also enjoyed looking at the color version longer while I lost interest in the b/w version quickly.
Bob, I'm torn. I really like them both, but the B&W is stunning.
Love the B/W. Back to the dark side😁!
I would have to choose the B&W due to the fact you had corrected the building's Perspective.

I really like the B&W Bob, love B&W!!
I agree with Bob. Removing the surroundings really lessens the impact of the B&W. To be a fair comparison, the images should have been treated equally. The colour is very nicely done, and I like the environment of the building.

Glad to hear all of the B&W people!!
B&W for me, not a fan of the streaks in color version -- Cheers -- Dan
I like both but far prefer the color image.

If you cropped out the building on the left, the pics would be a toss up. Nice captures.
