Black & White or Color?

I was out taking photos today of the John Marsh House and Stream using a 10Stop ND filter.  As many of you know, the long exposure images add a little bit of a change to the overall image color. My skills at photo editing are not that strong. Some have the skill to really adjust for the grey/bluish color.  So the questions comes down to, Color or Black and White?

Marsh Creek

Historic John Marsh House
I found a side road today in Brentwood that went along Marsh Creek and the John Marsh house. All of which will be part of the new California State Park. The land around the house is being used to graze horses.


The walls at the end of the stream appear to belong to an old bridge.

Update: I shot the images using my Nikon 70-300mm lens. I typically shoot with my Tamron Ultra Wide but I was pretty far away and really needed to get a closer view of the water.  I also had a circular polarizer on the lens.

I ordered a 10Stop filter for the 70-300mm lens to try and capture a different look in the same place.
