The angle you chose to take it at is so perfect VF, I looked back at the colour version and the blue of the sky strucked me, yet it works as well in b&w, truly If I had to choose, I'd have troulbe, definitely a mark of a great photo ;)
I have to agree with Lorraine VF - I 'm also unsure as to which version I prefer, but the Black and white is EXTREMELY striking for me!! I love the way the angel almost jumps out at you - the composition and angle are superb and the cross to the left of her adds extra impact for me.
Thank you so much for your kind words on my series on Erin, she really was a special little girl and we were very Blessed to have known her!
I prefer the b&w also - with the white of the statue it seems to fit a b&w shot a little better. Great composition with the angel on the right side looking left.....
i like this a lot!Love the BW effect and the way the angels are looking up at the sky as if waiting for Christ's return.
thanks for your kind advice at my blog.So wise and true!:)
