It is the colour version for me, Jimbo. As the moss is one of the highlights of the shot, I, personally, think the first is the choice, IMHO.

Same here. The subtle difference in tones seems to be lost in the B&W one. Hey JIM, exactly where is this magical place you've been photographically exploring? It's quite something.

Color. The stump's vertical elements get lost with those of the trees in the B&W.

Not trying to follow the crowd here, but color for me too. I like the B&W, but the color version really pulls me in.

No problem. I like the color though the B&W looses a bit of detail on the load up here. I do believe the color adds more depth though. JIM
