I like the black and white version. The background in the color shot is too distracting for me. The tonal values of the background in the black and white version near the face are very similar to the face. I find that distracts my eye from the face which is, after all, the main point of a portrait. If there were a way to do it I would burn it in some so that were darker. thanks for the free shot! :-) Barney On May 30, 2007, at 1:01 PM, Ted Grant wrote: > Hi Crew, > Here's your chance to shoot at me! ;-) > > Which version is the better?
