Happy couple 2

Which one would you like most? BW or color?

I like the BW shot but couldn't get rid of the flare. 50 1.7 is flare king. I am getting rid of it. Hope 50 1.4 is better in that land.

Here are the pics





Thanks

I think the colour shot works better because it uses the colourful Times Square (or wherever) background. That is really lost in the b/w shot.

I like the composition of the first shot a lot. The guy looks very self conscience in the second shot. But David makes a good point about the color. Can we see the first shot in color? The crop looks a bit troubled since her fingers are chopped off. I try to follow the tip from Scott Kelby's "The Digital Photography Book" of "Don't cut off joints."

P.S. I like this shot much better than the shot with the camera ... but what do I know
