Critique Welcomed Skotfoss church

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

Yesterday I took my mistress for a stroll and in doing so, we came across this church and I got a thought popping into my head as I only had a 35mm / 53mm/f2 wr on my xt1. Nice combination and a trial of whether I'd be pleased. So I made as you see one bl an wh, and one in colour, in Jpeg, nothing else and yes, using classic chrome as a film base.



As said. Fuji xt1, 35mm/f2 at 4 ISO 200 on both.

Quite a difference. I'm not sure what happened to the foreground in the first but I do like the B&W rendering of this.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Stunning images, Ivar. I like both equally.

 

[Martin Carlin]

Theres something weird going on in the forum I think. the B+W has been cut off which is the one I prefer. Both nice images Ivar.

 

[Pete Askew]

Aha, I see. Like you @Martin Carlin, I thought they were two versions of the same image. I now realise that theB&W one's taken from further to the left and the blank foreground is now. I guess those twigs are the same tree that you see on the left in the colour image.

 

[John Allen]

Nice shots, both of them. I am partial to b&w, as I've mentioned elsewhere, but I think I prefer the color image here. Those trees behind the church are particularly lovely in the color shot.

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

Thank you all, I personally see the world in colours, but have to admit that at times it can be too overwhelming with colours. I also feel that colours demand more as the colours should blend nicely together and sometimes they do not.
