Sun Blocks
Once again, here are the colour and monochrome versions of images from last week’s trip to Ogden Point Breakwater. I thought these two images go well with yesterday‘s bright version of the Ross Bay storm drain.
These are two different exposures, one converted from colour to black and white. I prefer the colour version this time, mostly because the water stands out a bit more from the granite. Both have lost their crispness in the translation to WordPress.
You can find out more about the breakwater in my first post of this series. This link collates the series in one place.

I like how you can almost see the underwater row of blocks in the colour picture.

Hi Hitty – thanks for commenting. I like that too – once you have seen it in the colour you can detect it in the b&w as well.

Indeed. And there is a richness to the different shades on each row of blocks in the color image. Beautiful shot, Ephem.

Thanks Ryan – the colour one is more subtle than the b&w in these ways. Probably why I prefer it.
