Cityscape Photography - "Columbus Ohio" in Hollywood

If you saw my last post, you'll know where this is from. I saved this one specific photo from the Ready Player One exhibit in my neighborhood because it was my favorite. But I had a tough time deciding on the edit. I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts. This is the edit I'm officially entering.

I like the light, bright colors of this edit. It almost plays ironically because this is an incredibly dismal cityscape, especially as portrayed in Ready Player One. The color almost makes this feel like a happy place.

The runner up edit is much more appropriate for the grim city. Thematically with the dystopian movie, this edit has most of the color bled out of it so it really works well expressing the unhappiness and bleakness of the future Columbus. Intellectually I know I should like this better than the first one, but I just don't.

And finally there is the monochrome edit. My favorite element of this edit is the large satellite dish. I think it looks wonderful in monochrome. Overall though I feel like some of the small details are lost without color so I think this would be my least favorite of the three.

Which edit do you like best?
