Moody clouds covered church
Eisenstadt, Austria.
This photo is pretty boring as a colour image. Black and white helped it out a bit.
What do you think?

I really enjoy creating something different with drones. I've had the Mavic now for about four weeks and I absolutely love it.

Here are a couple long exposure shots using my original 50 year old Minolta SR-T201 and kit lens shooting Fujifilm Neopan Acros 100 II. Both images were taken just at the end of blue hour.

I agree that the monochrome works well here, Dorka, (and I'm a lover of colour generally). Those clouds, looking almost like rising steam, give the image a slightly mysterious aura.
Given the mutually educational value of this forum, you could post the colour version, even unprocessed, for comparison.
(Speaking of which, in case you don't know, you can add images or edit the text of your post. Sometimes people do this when comments lead to a new edit, for instance. If the images are added in the main section on the left, rather than here in the Comments column, viewers can switch directly between them.)
NICE
I agree, sometimes the colour version does not add anything but switching to B&W highlights the building's architecture and placing the spire on the left draws the eyes across the roof and with the drift of the clouds. It feels like we add something to the picture by taking away the possible distraction of colour.
