Michael Lacy, asked for a black and white version of the photograph I posted earlier from my collection of memorial images of this sad tale of industrial and social GBH.
I had to add an infrared filter to make the low contrast scene work in monochrome as the original beauty came from low dark muted tones and colours not the contrast needed for b&w. For me it still does not work in this form, although in colour I do like it.
CC welcome of course. Assert yourselves.

Ian,
Thanks for the effort. It's to bad that access to the site is not possible. In this case I am feeling the color version has more emotional impact over the B&W. I usually try both and go with how the version I feel more emotion with. For me, it is your color version this time.
Mike
Could not agree more. I'll scrap the monochrome, version.
