I have to agree with Alpha..the sepia one looked more like it was hand colored ... and with the fluffy white clouds dominating the sky, it picked up a lot of the tone and makes it look almost as if that's the only part that has color to it. Dropping the brightness down some would probably help to. Light color in a b&w doesn't say lonely, abandonded or desolate to me. Then again, that may be just me. :) -=>Donald
