Color or Greyscale for Washington Coast

[Abiciriderback]

The light condition was far from good yesterday at the Washington Coast. Would appreciate opinion on which suits this capture best color or Greyscale. Or what should I do to make this a presentable photo. As always your CC is greatly appreciated

Thanks for looking

definitely the colour for me. It give me a chance to enjoy the browns in the wood and all the pebbles. U captured the cold foggy feeling very well. I really don't have anything to critique.

I think something in between. More desaturation on the first but not completely gray scale as the second. I'd try it if it were mine anyway.

I love B&W, but for this one I'd have to go with color, the drift wood colors and texture on the right a great, I'd maybe try to darken the sky a bit top left.

This is a tough one. I go with the b&w here. I usually find myself choosing color over b&w in these situations because the colors always have something more to offer and a b&w image really has to be a good candidate for it with the lighting and contrasts.
The composition is very good here and the shapes and tones leave me feeling more intrigued by the b&w version.
I can only suggest mabe adding a bit more contrast and pop to the b&w version.
Both are very nice anyway you go. . .

The color is so close to B&W I say go all the way (and tell anyone who asks that is what you intended all along!).
