Greetings—

... And happy New Year, one and all!

I thought I'd start 2010 with a feature that has proven to be quite popular here at, "The Way I See It" blog; "Compare and Contrast." One RAW file of one image, but processed once for color and again for black & white. Most of ya know I'm a B&W guy, so you can probably figure out which is my favorite ... but how about you? Vote for your favorite in the Comments section.
