..... at Waterloo station. Not sure which I prefer, I'm currently favouring the colour.

I do too, until I started to look at them individually, clicking backwards and forwards.

When I did that, I was getting some sort of colour fading effect between images. Don't know if it my screen or optical illusion. I suspect the latter, as I was seeing the blue as a kind of bronze colour. Just for half or quarter of a second.

Anyway, colour or B&W? How about compromising with some desaturisation and/or playing with the colours?

By the way, I do enjoy seeing your pictures of London, partly just nostalgia, and partly because most of them are stuff that I never thought of photographing.
 
Colour for me. The Mono is to flat and cold looking (like London :D)
 
Thanks Kev, Greg and Thad. I agree the colour is the best option. Thad, I tried desaturating the image, but didn't like the look, a bit washed out. I also tried to get the monochrome to be more bold, but could achieve an appealing look. It's odd as I thought this would be a strong black and white image.
