Don, I agree with Dave's comments;
" 1) The colorfully lit bridge photo is a winner.
2) The B&W conversion has a lot of good things going for it: excellent values, good composition, and a variety of interesting lines and shapes. But my eyes and brain feel overwhelmed by the profusion of small details everywhere in the image. (Somehow I don't sense this in the color version, perhaps because the color helps unify the image.)
3) The sunrise photo is spectacular: faultless composition, great values, and wonderful colors."
I am wondering how a conversion to infrared on the second one would work?
The bridge is my favorite!
