[Leica] PESO: a call for help

[robertbaron1 at gmail.com (Robert Baron)]

As the Rev. Dr. Uncle Ted might say (as slightly amended):  The color shows
the clothes, the b&w shows the people.

If most of your shots are of 'the events' you might well go with color, but
if mostly of the people the b&w is somewhat stronger.

fwiw, imnsho, ymmv.

Good luck with this!
