Random shot from my archives

Sunset on the Sanguinaires islands, Corsica, in august 2010. The scene was amazing and the picture looks great both in B&W and colour. Which one do you prefer ?

Coucher de soleil sur les îles sanguinaires, en Corse. La vue était incroyable et rend bien à la fois en N&B et en couleur. Quelle version est-ce que vous préférez ?

B&W for me :-)
I think I prefer the B&W also, because it is more homogeneous (and it looks more dramatic !)
Yes, those nice old CCD cameras tend to have a bit of problems with the dynamic range in high contrast color scenes (some parts are blown out, others not dark enough). It's a different story in black and white though, that gives it this nice, dramatic, contrasty film look.
