Personally, after studying both the mono and color - I finally decided on the color. Believe me, a difficult choice but the golden tones and warmer colors persuaded me.
For me, the mono provided an image of textures, light, contrasts and reflections. It has a cooler look and crisper textural detail, and I tend to favor mono when it there is a fit for it.
You can be your own judge!

This collage shows both Yellowlegs for comparison of size, and other characteristics. They were both seen at Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, Florida, but at separate locations.
Soo yard in Sault Ste. Marie MI used to be quite a bit bigger back in the SOO/WC days in comparison to now(now basically consists of a couple long tracks, the former DSS&A and SOO mains along with a couple stub tracks). Back when I shot 6626 leading the ACLD toward the I-Bridge there was plenty of track still to be found here. May 6, 1996.
Lambert’s Point, Virginia, became the primary home of Norfolk & Western’s nine ex-Nickel Plate RSD 12’s after they were withdrawn from road service. In addition to the nine Alco’s, NKP also added eighteen SD9’s to its roster in 1957. The head-to-head comparison was still going strong twenty-five years later, as two of the EMD’s can be seen in the extreme left distance.
Compare this with the bald eagle and mocking bird shot. The bald eagle is perched near the front top of the tower. Another is perched about half way down. No one walking the path I was on saw them unless I pointed them out! I love my long lens! I also love my iPhone for getting shots like this one.
Leica M Mono, Leitz Elmar 4/135 at F8. Of course, this comparison to the previous image is not straightforward. It is not just a different and much more expensive camera, the lens has a different focal range and is really old (over 60 years). But I do not think that the previous image, done with a "budget combo", is in any way inferior to this one. In fact, when it comes to judging an image as "interesting" or "artistic" I don't think that the question of budget or not plays a role at all.
Newly hatched cicada. It latched on to an old fence post here at home for the next transformation. It will begin to blacken in a few hours.
Herring Gull (l) and Lesser Black-backed Gull (r). HG - grey back, pink legs, yellowish eyering round pale eye, yellowish gape; LBBG slate-grey back, yellow legs, orange-red eyering round pale eye and orange-red gape.

A Neotropic cormorant on the left (Phalacrocorax brasilianus) and a Double-crested cormorant (Phalacrocorax auritus) on the right. The size difference is clearly apparent. Always interesting to get two different versions of the same species in the same image. There are arguably 40 different species of the cormorant / shag species.

Many thanks to all those who take the time to comment on my photos. It is truly appreciated.
DSC_5326
While out for a drive yesterday I found this Male and Female Osprey tucked down in the low ground seeking a break from a windy day. It is a crappy distant shot, I had problems trying to keep the camera steady as it was windy, but I figured I should take a shot anyways because with them both in the same tree I could clearly see the size difference between the male and the female. Female is above, also the females have speckled brown necklace (but I have read so do some of the males) In this case size tells who is who!
Yup. Pretty cool. PLEASE COMMENT IF YOU FAVE!

The bananas on the right look to be the perfect ripeness for eating (in my opinion—different people like different levels of ripeness when it comes to bananas). The bananas on the left appear too ripe for eating plain (again, my opinion) but they are excellent for baking or making smoothies. Both bunches of bananas are different in which ways they’re best enjoyed. When I compare my lack of capacity to achieve a lot of great things with someone in different circumstances who has the capability to do things I’m not able to it’s easy for me to fall into deep shame and guilt. I need to continually remind myself God created each of us unique and we have different experiences that shape us therefore it’s not always helpful to compare myself to others. It gives me the freedom to be who God created me to be with unique gifts and abilities and focus on growing in the ways He desires for me—which I’m still working on and probably will be for as long as I’m alive.

My first attempt at developing film at home. For me it was an overwhelming process and I’m thankful I gave it a try. There is so much satisfaction and enjoyment for me to be able to accomplish this despite my fears and most of my days being about survival without having the capacity for much “extra” stuff. Being able to see the final image is so amazing after this whole process. It turned out much better than I expected. I’m still learning.

Snow and Ross Geese side by side for comparison. I've been trying to get a shot like this for years.
Well here is the comparison of the photo of RL and my new pose. Hope you like! I tried to do my best. Adriana, thank you for your patience and cooperation... loviu <3
Here you can see the colouring and bill differences between an immature male and an older male Surf Scoter.
Having been a big fan of Deep Dream Generator, I keep trying the text generator, but haven't gotten any spectacular creations, plus it takes so long. So today I used the exact same prompts on both Wombo and DDG. The Wombo style was VFX. No post enhancement. I think Wombo won this word challenge.
A shot to demonstrate the difference in size between the Hairy Woodpecker (f) and Downy Woodpecker (f).
The two shots of the woodpeckers were easily combined as both were taken in similar light , on the same perch from a fixed ( tripod) distance so that the ratios and sizes were exact......layering the two shots was made easy in that at 50 % opacity I could see both images and superimpose one on top of the other by using the branch. I used the tiny knot hole under the Hairy's claw to line up both branches/layers.

Having an incredible amount of reach allows you to do some unique things with a lens. Zooming in on the moon as it rises is one of them. In this shot I've shot the moon at 600mm and cropped in a little over 50%, meaning that this is more like 1300mm of reach. I've got some cool shots of the moon in full light, but I wanted to share this more moody shots where layers of clouds are drifting in front of the moon. I've given this shot a little bit of a faded look in Exposure X2 to enhance the mood. It was still very yellow at this point, and I've tried to preserve that here. You can see more images that I've taken with the lens here: bit.ly/2dU7diG or view my first look video here: bit.ly/2dn7bBP

Yes, it's another penguin photo, but this one is slightly different! I like how it shows the scale of the gentoos in comparison with one small peak.
Though it pales in comparison to his tile shots, I am dedicating this on to Sir Cam, the best darn Cambridge photographer out there.
Just a quick snap to use as an example in another thread. Did not clean before, because I was in a hurry and was not trying to make something beautiful.
Panasonic 35-70mm F/2.8 (1st generation)
OM System 12-40mm F/2.8 II
The OM lens is slightly shorter at it's most compact, but is longer at it's most extended. The Panasonic, however, does not change size as it zooms.
I thought it would be fun to show the direct comparison between two similar setups!

I took a shot of this striped lynx (Oxyopes salticus) mama the other day using my Vivitar (Komine) 90mm f2.8 1:1 Macro. Today, I found the same gorgeous girl still guarding her egg clutch, so I snapped a remarkably similar shot using my Phoenix (Cosina) 100mm f3.5 1:2 Macro paired with a 2x Macro Focusing Teleconverter.
Right away, you can see the difference in color reproduction. The word I keep finding is "flat". The depth of the greens, and the subtle undertones of the browns and darker shades are just missing! This Phoenix lens is a really stellar lens, but can't compare frame-for-frame with the Komine 90mm. It's also worth noting the overall level of clarity!
When you zoom in, you can start to see the difference in resolving power pretty clearly. The Phoenix does a darn good job for a stack of glass in a plastic shell, but the shot captured using my Komine a few days back is much sharper on individual details. Both shots are captured at 1:1, but magnification rate does not always mean the image is worth magnifying!
Of course, both of these lens setups are literally decades behind the times and rendered fully obsolete by modern mirrorless cameras, insane 15 frames per second burst modes, and focus peaking, but it's fun to show the budget side of the hobby! You can 100% capture worthwhile images without modern gear and guided trips, you just have to learn your equipment!
This comparison was brought to you at 1:1 by my plastic fantastic Phoenix (Cosina) 100mm f3.5 Macro, attached to a Vivitar 2x Macro Focusing Teleconverter. This photo is uncropped. This lovely little lady is around 6-7mm long!
