I like the subtle colors in the color photo, and I like the black and white because it evokes the image you described... a forlorn swing waiting for the return of children long since departed. <BR/><BR/>I think it works better for me in black and white rather than in sepia because I think of tire swings in the age of the 1950's-1960's where you see more black and white than sepia photographs (though there are pictures of us in both during that era). I know automobiles were around during the heyday of the sepia era, but I just think of the tire swing as a later invention. The early tires were thin as compared to the ones on vehicles later on, so historically, I think you're safer with a black and white photograph or even color photo of a tire swing. My two cents.

Isn't it amazing how the different color techniques can affect the emotional tone of a picture.<BR/><BR/>In my opinion, the color photo is the most pleasing to the eye ... but I think the black and white and sepia pictures evoke more of an emotional and nostalgic response.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
