Thanks Jim, tho the snow in the background might give a hint as to the season.Both are super strong here. You couldn't miss with either one. While I am tempted to pick B&W, I like the color as you get a better sense of the cold with the blue tones. In the B&W it could have been shot at any time of the year by the look of it.
The B&W is more dynamic but I still like the color image better, Stephen.
