The color version. #1529099

Kirsten Kiki Kjaer May 21, 2013

WOW!!!!!!! What a beautiful woman!
And this portrait is one of the best I've ever seen, Michelle. The lighting is perfect and her proud pose is - I don't even have the words - NationalGeo-stuff for sure!!
Fav'd!
P.S. They should both be entered! #10701673

Tammy M. Anderson level-deluxe May 21, 2013

I agree with Kristen. Enter them both. Beautiful light and tones. I think I favor the color version a little more. #10701677

Liz blahh May 21, 2013

Stunning! #10701733

David Phalen May 21, 2013

Two beautiful images of a beautiful lady!! You should also enter the color version> #10701774

Dale Hardin May 21, 2013

Michelle, these are both excellent. The pose, the subject, the light, the colors. You can't go wrong with either.

At this point I think the color is the stronger of the two, but if you apply some creative dodging and burning to accent the key light on the black and white, I believe it will give the color image a run for it's money. #10701809

Monnie Ryan May 21, 2013

Tough choice but think I ever-so-slightly prefer the B&W. Both are beautiful portraits! #10701817

Mitch Spence level-classic May 21, 2013

Strong portrait with great light. Yes, black and white for me, no question. #10701859

Joannie Bertucci level-classic May 21, 2013

Both stunningly off the charts! The problem with posting both, the judges will have a very hard time trying to decide which one will get the grand prize! Into my favs, exceptional work Michelle #10702071

MELODIE C. ROBERTS May 21, 2013

Black and White hands down
No questions asked!!!

It is just stunning Mickey!!
Making it a favorite and expecting it to get the gold!! #10702120

Carol L. Fowler May 21, 2013

They are both gorgeous, just different! #10702277

Terry Cervi level-deluxe May 21, 2013

How beautiful, Michelle! I love this in black and white! #10702371

Jeffrey R. Bange May 21, 2013

Both photos are outstanding Michelle, I prefer the B&W as I feel it has a little softer look to it. #10702402

Barbara Waldoch May 22, 2013

Fantastic shot, Michelle! #10702522

Lindley Johnson level-classic May 22, 2013

Beautiful work, Michelle! Both versions are outstanding - I especially love the black and white one. You could wait until next month to enter the color version, then they wouldn't be competing against each other. #10702831

Lynn M. Whitt May 22, 2013

This is beautiful! I like both of them. #10702891

Jill Odice level-classic May 22, 2013

What a great portrait of a beautiful woman! I love the colors, but the B/W version is very special also! #10702941

Deborah C. Lewinson level-addict May 22, 2013

Both are exceptionally beautiful portraits, Michelle! Enter the color one next month, because both should be winners!

Perfect lighting. This is a stand out Michele. Really pretty! #10704771

Renee Doyle May 24, 2013

Both are simply OUTSTANDING Michelle!!!!! Hmmmm - if I have to chose I just love the lighting and tones of the b/w version #10705483

Ujjwal Mukherjee May 24, 2013

Both are excellent images so enter the color version as well, however the b&w version would be my favorite due to the wonderful tone!! #10705604

Mike F. Anderson May 25, 2013

What you've captured here as a candid Michelle, others painstakingly try to create in a studio. Excellent in all ways! I vote for the B/W one. I've enjoyed all your recent portrait entries. #10706389

Cindy Bendush level-classic May 25, 2013

Gorgeous B&W study Michelle. The lighting is beautiful! This one is my vote! #10706601
