Two-for-one today ~ I couldn't decide...

This old town got hit a few months ago by a tornado. I hope the old town square didn't suffer any damage. I need to take a trip back up there.

Another from Jan 05'

    Got to go with the colored one here, Randy. I think that version accentuates the weathered appearance of the buildings a lot better. I also think the colored one draws a better distinction between the varied materials at play....brick, tin, etc. Really good work.

    Take care,

    Tom
    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Hey Tom,

    Me too, I knew which one I liked best, but wasn't sure what others thought. Thanks for the input!

    Nice shot. IMO, it's no contest--color all the way. thumb.gif

    Hi Randy, I like the processing on both of these - but really prefer the colour version.

    Cheers, Richard.

    Looks like I should have just posted the one I liked best after all rolleyes1.gif

    Saint Jo is North of D/FW, about half way to the Oklahoma border from here.

    You still coming down in May?

    Just looked up Saint Jo.....not far from the interstate if I found the right one. Hopefully I can make a stop there either going into or out of TX. Looks like a neat place to photograph.

    Yes..we are still planning on coming down that way in May wings.gif I love long roadtrips.

    Just to let you know, what you see in my pic is about all there is of Saint Jo. A small town square is it.
