Finding dragons in a city whose symbol is a dragon is not easy at all. However, there are a few along the river bank...
Yes, this is one and the same photo (taken with the snapper so excuse less than perfect depth of field) but I wanted to present it in different ways... which one do you prefer?

I prefer the first. I can see more detail in the dragon. The second one looks faded and the third one seems too bright. Picky, aren't I?
I prefer the bottom one - it makes the dragon really stand out! (if you ask 20 people you will get 20 different responses - even with only 3 photos!) LOL! Thank you for playing!!!
I've sat and looked at them and my first response was the first one - color is what we are typically accustomed to seeing. When I think 'dragon' I think really cute or menacing - so the second one is more menacing. In this it's like it could be taking over the town. That's just one more opinion. :)
Always so hard for me to make choices. I like the first one because the contrast between the green bush adn the dragon stand out for me. But then the thrid one in black and white really brings my attention to the dragon.
yes, it's quite obvious the version with colour would be most appealing and i deliberately exaggerated the contrast in the BW photo. sepia is least popular, it seems, and understandably so.
mary - i call a snapper my compact canon powershot as opposed to the dslr
The third shows up the shape of the dragon, the second (to me) shows more surface detail, but I like the first one best - so much more to see. I think each could be used in different circumstances. It's a lovely dragon.

I like the third one. It has more of a magic feeling.
I like the first one!
the statue is beautiful

What a great dragon! I like the first version best, I think.

Marvelous dragons! What is the snapper? I'm having lots of fun hunting dragons! :)
thanks all.
