Colour vs B&W processing

When I saw these bolts through this beam I though they made a nice repeating pattern and took a picture.  As I was adjusting the image in Lightroom I thought I would just have a look at it as a black and white.  Well to me what a difference, it becomes not only an image of the bolts but much more so about their shadows.  I just hadn’t envisioned this image in that way.  I think for me it’s a good lesson about exploring how you process and present your images. As an aside this is my 300th post!
