A lovely painted sign in Portland, Oregon. The older vehicles parked out front add to the old-time feel, too. Snapped this in March 2015.

This is one of the bridges across the Main River in Frankfurt, Germany. Captured this as I passed thru there in September 2015.

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?
