Great first post. :)

They're both cool. B&W by a hair for me.

Both are great :)

Seriously, I think they complement each other beautifully and work as a set.

I had not thought of a complement pair. That is a good idea. Thanks for the comments.

Colour for mine, but they do make an intriguing pair - the area of focus is different in each.

Like both but think the B+W one could work better with a bit more contrast.

My pick is colour version, it does seem to add a lot depth to the image itself with the sky and bricks :)

Welcome to the forums btw :D

Welcome to the forum....I like the B&W version because the window reflections seem to stand out more there...both awesome shots...

I prefer the colour simply because I find the shadow band over the lower two floors more distracting in the the B&W version.

If that was evened out in PP somehow (No idea how to do it. If it was film, I'd try some artful dodging), I think I would prefer the B&W.

Welcome Nigell,
I like the B&W. It feels very appocaliptic.
