I like it. It has an air of mystery. I find, unusually for me, that colour is necessary.

Colour.

Lovely image - almost like a split toned b & w anyway.

My first reaction was: color. But after studying both images for a while I switched to monochrome. In the mono version the structures on the right are better defined, and I think the improved definition makes for a more balanced composition.

I find the colour version much more pleasing. And with a little bit of increase to clarity and vibrance in LR the definition of both left and right structures matches that of the monochrome.

Fascinating image! Both are good, I vote for the color. It is very gentle color.
