    I took this photo of Knox College at the University of Toronto yesterday and can't decide if I prefer the colour or sepia. Thoughts? Criticisms?

    hmmm, tough choice ... I love the sepia, but it does show the clouds too much for one reason or another. I think the clouds are a bit distracting from the image. They do not show as predominately on the colour one. I'd see what I could do about the sky in the sepia one. Maybe burn it a wee bit, i dunno ....

    Thanks Matt, I can adjust it to tone down the clouds...still can't decide though, lol.

    I guess I get a two-for-one with this shot!

    I think the Sepia for me because there's not a lot of colour in the photo anyhow and whats there isn't anything noteworthy.

    I can't decide either. I would try a contrasty B&W and see what that looks like
