every colour monochrome
i'm a naturally indecisive person, it's an unfortunate and frustrating trait which i'm pretty sure runs in the family - it's a wonder we get any shit done. with this photo it manifested itself when i had to choose between colour and black and white. certain shots seem to lend themselves to a black and white treatment, mudwalkers in colombia, ghosts in peru, kids with guns - i'd like to think they were all enhanced by a monochrome treatment. similarly other shots have striking colours where the removal would detract from the image, dunes in huacachina, jumping in colombia and a sunset in ecuador spring to mind from my more recent posts. with this in mind i was torn with this photo - the colours in the original were particularly vivid and it was what made me take the shot in the first place. however i tried it in black and white and liked the result. if only there was a way to upload both versions... hold on a sec... i've been doing that off and (mostly) on since 2006... i feel better now. so, here's the black and white version, and...
...here's the colour version - feel free to tell me the colour version is superior and i'll feel bad again.
