Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.
Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.
Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.
Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

..its probably terrible English for the title but it rhymed  ....
Anyway,went out to Wisemans Ferry early Saturday and took the picture below. I am quite fond of it but my wife isn't the biggest fan...so I thought I throw it out to the public and see whether you like the colour version, the b&w version or neither.....
Images taken with D200 and 70-200 VR @70mm, f/5.5, 1/350s, spot meter ISO100...
#1. Colour
#2. B&W
Cheers

If I had to take one, it would be the colour but I'm afraid I agree with your wife 
Greg It's easy to be good... when there is nothing else to do

The colour version deserves a little boost in PP, the light is pretty cool here

What do you like about the photo? Only interesting thing in it for me are the light rays (which are only semi obvious) and the highlights of the tree tops.

Guys, thanks for the responses...
Mr Darcy...not to worry at least she is happy
Yi-P...I did try and bring out some colour, but only basic PP...issue here is that it was taken with a zoom, slightly into the light and a fine fog still rising...so basically it looked as presented here...I will try some layering tonight.
Piro...great question....What I like about it is the abstract nature of it...the fact that you only see some of the tree tops...you can see the tree trunks but not fully..almost like an impressionist painting  ....But maybe I have been taking too many of those green pills.....
Cheers again
