Hi Steve,
Two things about this photo with what I think is a kind of sepia look?

1/ We've seen it as a warm hearted meaningful modern day B&W photograph with 
what we'll call "modern attire."
Including the cap.

2/ They don't look old enough to fit in with the usual "Sepia aged folks" of 
the bygone era of sepia photographs.

I think it was worth a try to see what it would look like in Sepia, fair 
enough. But that's as far as I would take it. The series to this point in 
B&W is so powerful with the few colour images, the sepia wouldn't do 
anything for the overall look and impact but be a gimmick distraction.

You have a winner without question in the complete series without fiddling 
with anything else. Stay the course mon ami with the B&W and few colour.

cheers,
ted
