After seeing the black and white shots which are strong in both senses of
the word (contrasty and solid images) the color shot which at the end gets
blown away and seems like a different media-- A sketch competing against oil
paint. And its kind of washy.

I'd start out with the color then hit them with the black and white.

And snap up the color (more contrast and or saturation)
And get closer. On that shot.

Or make it into black and white.

Or all or none of the above.
