This is my version of the image which Dirk spotted. Than I took few shots of the same scene. Today just very quickly I created these two version of it.
I am looking forward to hear your thoughts about any or all of them 
Mmmh, this is interesting… several aspects don’t make sense to me:
1) they are not “your” pictures – not saying they are mine, but they don’t feel like they are not yours and seem “accidental”. that is probably a good thing for both of us.
2) I never like b/w and colour shown side by side because then I usually prefer the colour. also the b/w looks too clean and not the greys I like
3) the angle of view is somehow not wide enough, just slightly, to make it – for me anyway – a good picture. in 35mm terms this looks like a 40mm lens or so and it makes me want to see more or less – it is kind of in the middle between detail and overall view
Interesting experiment though!
1.) Confusing, not sure if I understand you here. Do you mean that I should wrote: “This is image I made of the scene spotted by Dirk” ?
2.) OK that is personal. I only made bw version because color was too crowded for my feel and also I darkened part of it. But I agree that is too clean.
3.) I made about six shots of this scene. I picked up this one because I feel best about it. I will make another post and will publish wider version, in color only
although i like all of your BW photos, but sure this time, I prefer the color one. The color game and texture looks like a good combination at the above image.
Victor, I agree, I like it more too
