Again I can't decide which I like better color or black and white. So here it is an old barn across the street from a forgotten farm house I want to buy. Here it is

or

Let me know

I like the black and white one more. The sky in the first one is wild though.

umm...well i prefer the colour one, BUT, they look like paintings more than photographs to me due to the processing done on them. which is not to say i don't like them, which i do.

both variations seem to have their qualities, I'd say it depends on how you want it presented.

The color variation has incredible color information that stands out and gives the feel of a painting. This gets better when the cliche of a "painting of a barn" is broken by the sense of decay shown in the photo.

The B&W gives the feel of drama, its something you would see from a horror film but still seems a bit expected. The sky becomes the unusual quality in the B&W imo and adds to that drama nicely.

So, I'd say keep either or, if you want something amazing to show go color, and if you want a deep dramatic tone go B&W.
