I would go with the colour ..... B&W is nice and fashionable but i think the colour captures the colours and realism of the scene. You almost wanna be quiet when viewing the colour one, it seems so real as if your going to startle the zebra.
Just my thought.
color.
depends on the frame and the environment you plan on hanging it in.
I like the colour version. :thumb:
I'm a b/w fan but I even gotta go with color on this one. Just looks better in this case.
ok color it is. i think i like it better too. lol on a side note, did anyone notice the ostrich in the back?
:laugh: I didn't notice the ostrich, and I didn't notice the second zebra's butt. :laugh:
what about the big pile of sh*t? :laugh: :laugh: ok its a fake termite mound..
I bet I know where you took that photo
muahaha i bet u do! lol nice jake
For everyone's information...
it's not a black & white picture....
It's called SEPIA TONE!!!
:laugh:
Go with the sepia. Zebra's are all about black and white anyway and the sepia shot captures the tonal range more thoroughly. The color is just ho-hum (your greens aren't really that vivid and the sky is washed out). If possible, adjust your white balance on this shot.

whats wrong w/ the white balance? ur right the sky is blown out but i cant get that data back even with tweakin the raw file. but what would the WB do?
Good question. I am still in the process of mastering CS2, so I may be off on the white balance advice. If I understand correctly, working with your white balance in RAW will help with some of the washout that's present both in the sky and in the grass near the zebra's head.
If not, could you burn in that area with Photoshop? The termite mound, the log, and the zebra all have great tone to them. The sepia to me brings out not just the awesome tone, but the great depth of field and the composition even more than the color.

I may have missed the ostrich but I did not a big zebra ass poking out from behind the tree
go color, or try a true b/w, not a sepia.

I guess I'm just not as used to looking for @$$? :icon_lol:
Do a PS edit with everything in B&W (not sepia) except for the Zebra.
:thumb:
not a big fan of the selective color. some situations but def not this one.
Do it anyway. :flipoff:
why not. nothing better to do. lemme make a prediction. the zebra is already black and white so it wont be that noticable other than some slight color. my prediction is that it will be ghey. but whatever... brb.

I was thinking the same thing... you won't notice it or you'll think it's stupid.

wow that does look retarded.. wonder why so much green on the damn equine. reflection?
i agree.
i didn't think it would THAT odd...
Well, it would have looked cool if he wasn't green.... :dunno_white:
It was supposed to be ironical. :laugh:
Throw a warming filter on the shot and see what happens.
