Spotted this alongside a parking lot behind St. Mary’s Cathedral Basilica in Halifax, Nova Scotia, when I visited briefly back in the spring.

A lot of signs like this one are popping up all over Calgary.
Most of them are outside pubs, announcing “Beer” and “Not beer” … so this one was a little refreshing when I came across it.

Colour or black-and-white?

I recently posted some photos of Drumheller onto my Flickr stream. Thanks to everyone who went by for a visit.
One of you, Flickr user nokkie1, suggested I try a high-contrast black-and-white version of a photo I originally posted in colour.
They are both shown below.

I like the ominous nature of the sky versus the relatively colourful landscape on the colour image. However, I quite enjoy the other-worldly feel of the monochrome image.
Now, over to you. Which do you prefer?
