Color one for me Sergey! I love these classic Russians churches. And gold against the bright blue sky works really great.

Thank you! Don't know why, but I like B&W version more. Anyone to share my taste? Would be interesting to know more opinions.

I like b&w, but this time i go for the color one.

I am not sure. Gold over blue is a great combination, better than BW, but the bottom part, those tree tops, are less disturbing in BW.

I agree that the trees are a little obtrusive in colour, but maybe reframing (cropping in post processing) would help. It'd be a good opportunity to rotate and shift adjust the picture, too.

Thank you for your comments guys!
The trees do not look obtrusive to me, but what is disliking in color version is the edge between the sky and the onions that in my opinion makes image looking a bit unnatural.

I do prefer the colour version, yellow against blue always works well on my eyes ;-)

But the BW version is also interesting. With a bit more contrast and light, maybe it will "pop" like the colour version?

Great picture! Colour version is my favourite too

Thank you!

My vote goes to the B&W (sepia) version.

I knew that someone will support me end of the day
