i like the color one, but would be interested in a BW with a steeper curve...

Agreed, give the BW some more contrast, make some parts really pop out. I'm looking at the sky here.. Really though, BW is awesome when it's really vibrant (if that makes sense..)

Get some B&W emulator plugins and try it that way. As is I prefer the Color one as well.

the black and white version really tones down the bridge. the color version makes it stand out, rather than blending it in.

I like the color better because it's more contrasty than the BW (sounds obvious but the opposite can often be true)

As they are I like the color better too. I think the same shot taken when the sun is on the side of the bridge would produce a better look, and make the B&W more punchy.

Thanks guys. I think the color seems to be the fav by all, but for some reason I like the B&W a lot more. I know it lacks in contrast, but I think that is why I am drawn to it. I think it gives an "old school" feel without being sepia.

That is exactly what I was thinking. If U put in some old, 50's style jeeps and military personnel it would be pure nostalgia. The B&W looks like a frame in some Hollywood movie, maybe flashback from 'Presidio'
