I have this in the wrong catagory but just wanted the two compared.

I like the BW version, not because I don't like sepia, but the hand position gives a different message. The BW looks more relaxed and it works with the title. In the sepia version his hands show some anxiety, looks like he’s captive rather than just grounded.

The focus is better in the sepia version, but I feel more attracted to the BW version.

I love this! It has such hidden depth. The glint of his eyes in so good! The black and white version had more meaning for me. #1650052

I love the hand placement in the B&W shot. Really conveys a longing to get out and play.
Nice job! #4074809
