    Emilio, you somehow manage to bring out so much variation in black and white that the image is almost like color (does that make ANY sense?).
    I gotta go with the B&W, but I love the color of the bridge in the color version

      Thanks, Laurie. Your comment makes sense but now I have to figure out what I did so I can duplicate it. Thanks for taking the time of what has to be pretty precious right now, to visit!

    So, I’ll shake things up – I like the color better 😜That’s not to say I don’t like the black and white, I just like the lighter mood and lovely saturation of the other. So, NOW what are you going to do, Emilio?? πŸ˜„

      It’s funny but I wasn’t thinking leading lines when I took this picture. Then I looked at it in Lightroom and loved it. For whatever reason, I liked the color version better but maybe I’ll change my mind if one more person says they like the b & w. better.

    Very cool image Emilio I love the depth of field and detail. Looks like the Tropicana would make a great condo complex πŸ™‚ I also like the B&W version better. Great work.

      The Tropicana is one of the older buildings on the strip and built with less imagination than the newer buildings. I like this angle but, overall, there weren’t many other shots I liked that day. Thanks!

      Thanks, Debbie. I went back to compare and I still prefer the color- though I understand why every one else prefers the b & w!
