Color, no question. The reddish hair, the iconic brown that represents UPS delivery drivers, paired with the “medium brown bag”. The little splotches of yellow cab and yellow jacket on the outside edges. I think it’s gotta be color.
What a great post! And the age of Photoshop only makes this a more common dilemna. Though I agree: color. Although the b/w does make you more aware of the patterns on the UPS boxes and her busy dress pattern…
who said, “color is what you get when you put color film in your camera?”
The downside to digital comes when you go to make a print and it does not translate. I am battling that now. A digital bw print statement is very different from a chemical darkroom print. It is almost enough to make me go back for bw.
don’t forget sepia; lots of nice browns in there.

Of course color…
Color contains most of the value of this photograph… the BW is becomes a “throw away”.
…ok people seem to like this so I will make a “feature” of it…it will be a challenge for me to come up with photos that can work both ways.
…I have another up my sleeve already!
