Which one do you prefer?

Grabbed this in London last week, passing through Paddington station. I am torn. Which version do you prefer and why?

I am a black and white guy, but here I prefer the color shot (if I HAD to choose).

Colour every time - it's dramatic with some punch.

Same as filmfan. My reason is I like the sky better in the color shot. It just doesn't come out as well to my liking in the b/w shot.

Complimentary colors of blue sky and the "orange" panel are simply irresistible. I believe maybe the architect had this in mind when designing this exterior detail. It would be best to render it as intended IMO. As well there are very nice monochrome tones also there in the color version. I don't think it is a very difficult choice. Nicely found 🙂

Yeah, it was the colours I first saw but as I mostly shoot black and white I tend to err in that direction. I should remember why I shot the scene in the first place.

Thanks for your feedback, it really helps to bounce it off others.

The color one. The black and white image seems too flat....

Love the color contrast vs the BW It just pops🙂

Color in this instance, colors are vibrant and the B&W is a bit flat.
