Photo taken with a Nikon D80 with a 18-135mm lens, shot at ISO 200, 70mm, F/5.6, 1/500 sec. Comments and critique welcomed.

Vivid and richly saturated as the color shot is, the monochrome shot gets my vote, that said both very well crafted images. I guess I just gravitate towards B&W images. Gorgeous photogreaphy.

The color is so vivid on this shot that I am going to have to give my vote to 1

I'm not usually for the b/w but this one works for me. Although they are both great!
