Have posted a sepia version of this image to the gallery right now. [ A moment of silence in the rush of our days"](http://www.renderosity.com/viewed.ez?galleryid=980699&Start=1&Sectionid=8&filter_genre_id=0&WhatsNew=Yes) Here is the original shot just for comparison. Just curious which one you like more. :o) Monika

In this instance defiantly the sepia for me. This one is lovely too, but like the softness of the sepia version.

Call_for___PiCue.gifi agree here - the sepia version is more intense... "mas more mood".... anyway - this one's also interesting... i like to see what came out here... there seem to be more contrast in the sepia toned one... thanks for showing, dear moni :)

Very lush and green, quite a contrast to your gallery image, which I prefer. But seeing all the comments saying they like this one better, I guess it just comes down to a matter of taste. I do know I'd love to be there! :)

oH!! Well now....mmmmmh! Strangely, I think I prefer the original too here! And God knows I'm a sepia fan but on this particular case, I think the original is just awesome as it is and has such a fantastic mood already! But...I love them both! Yep!

If I were to choose I would pick the sepia one. Mostly because the two treetrunks in center are (in part)lost in the darknes near the ground in the color version - but that can probably be fixed with some minor tweaking - and then I would have a hard time choosing.

I have to choose the original - the sepia has a bit of the infra red look to it, and for me falls between the two camps.

And every one said, 'If we only live,
We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to sea in a Sieve.

Gotta say,I prefer the sepia.It elevates it to something much more than a pretty shot of a tree.IMHO of course!

I always kind of like original nature shots the best, but I am too undecided on this. Both have a great impact for what they are. One reminisces, the other feels naturally peaceful.

Thank you guys! I see it's just a matter of taste or the mood one is in smiles as each version has it's own mood. So I guess it wasn't only me to be unsure which one to post LOL Glad you liked both!

hi moni... i too like the sepia... gives it a dreamlike quality... definitely one's own preference... thanks for the comparison! :]

WOW! Like a totally different photo..but equally beautiful! Wonderful capture of these tree Monika! :)

Enmos ( ) posted Sat, 18 June 2005 at 6:06 AM

Both are gorgeous Monika, but i think i like the sepia a bit better this time :o) Superb work here !! :o)

Well, what can I say. Curiosity got the better of me. For what it is worth, the colour version is perfect and nice, but it is just another colour photograph. Sorry. The duo-toned version is more deeper emotionally. It made me stop and think. As I always say, colour is emotional and B& is intellectual. Ah, a contradiction here maybe? No! Colour is a momentary emotion, B&W makes us think and in the duo-toned version I feel a deep connection, an emotion to the past memories of childhood. Stories of heroes and gods.
