There is such a grace to this fellow, I had to make the shot.

Personally I much prefer the colour version.  There are a lot of subtleties, in the mane for example that are lost in the B&W.

Well, in the main, I'd tend to agree, but where did you see the B/W shot? I always knew this Vista thing was a poor alternative to something better of which I know not.

I also prefer the color version. I found that the B/W version was too dark for my taste…

It's a poor alternative to a Mac, of course, Rob! (hides in bunker). The B&W shot is here (http://www.luminous-landscape.com/forum/index.php?topic=68605.0).
