Tina,
I too like both.
But I must admit,for me, that B/W works with ALL of them, colour only on nearly all.
What colour does show are the typical vivid materials used for clothing - I suppose, at the end of the day, it all depends on what the images are intended to say, how much art ,or how much documentation.

Hi Tina,

I do like both, but if forced to choose, I prefer people pictures in B&W. Having said that, I must also confess that sometimes I decide to convert an image to B&W out of sheer laziness. I am not that good at judging skin tones and the like, and if I have a scene with mixed lighting (a night scene, for example) I may just say: "Never mind the colors, just do B&W."

PAWs:

I usually think of Guatemala in color, but somebody said that this series might be better in black and white so I've posted it both ways.
I'd really like to know which you prefer and why.
