These are all the same image, but are three different treatments of them.
I like them all, that said, but tell me which you think are better...

Colour

Infrared

B&W

The image isn't strong enough to stand on it's own in colour (especially since the foreground is so dark) and the IR has similar problems. The silhouette achieved in the 3rd iteration makes the most of what's there without the distractions of peering at the indistinct foreground.

Oh and I like the image.

tossup between the first and last

the first however has that better subdued moody tone to it, it has the best depth of them all
whereass the last one looses that depth but is gaphically strong

i think the IR one is cool but it's revealed some bush below the hill which bothers the smoothness of that hill as seen in 1

did you use the IR filter or a photoshop IR filter?

The third of the series stands out to me alot more due to it's really simplistic nature. I would consider cropping the tree to the left out as it's semi chopped out already? Nice shot though! A simple but striking photograph.

#1 for me, it's got a nice tone to it. But I am not sure I like the cropping.


My shot when we were out there is in my miscellany gallery if you want to check it out.

Like the first here Leigh. It has a painterly quality to it.

#3 - its simplicity wins me over.
