I prefer the first. I almost always much prefer color to black and white. but in this instance, the color gives dimension to the picture, whereas the black and white is totally flat, and unappealing.

Appears to have more depth, I would like to see a shot with more emphasis on the pod.

I am a huge fan of B&W, but in this case there seems to be more detail in the color. Both work very well, but this time color!

I just realized I never answered your question and the edit period on my post expired. I almost always choose the color version of a shot and it's true here as well.
