please suggest which one is looking better. I love the colored ones for its tone but the mono version is much more dramatic. Any other editing suggestion is also welcome

This female has arrived at Hamerton. This place rescues animals from all over the world, mainly endangered species, and they breed when they can.

A couple of old photos taken while the Amtrak was stopped - somewhere in Colorado, I think?
(And yes, I like that the vertical leans!)

I've photographed Ady a few times now. We get better each time as a team. This image was a fave from our latest session. I hope you like it to.

Just a heads up for anyone that may be interested (and as things are slow in the group.....).

Great image. I really like the dynamic between the human figure and the skyscape here, and the ways the lines in the image both separate and connect them
Personally, I prefer the color version, which has a lot of appeal that is lost in the B&W image. In the color image, the sun sort of anchors the skyscape; but in B&W it almost looks a bit like a hole in the sky. Also (and maybe this is just because I'm unfamiliar with the locality), the item the figure is holding (a net?) seems more confusing in the B&W version; and the rectilinear lines of the landscape (rice fields?) become emphasized in a way that I like less.
I might crop a little tighter at left to eliminate the bush or tree that just looks like a round lump at this distance. I might also crop a little space away from the foreground, but I'm less sure about that.
Thank you for the suggestions. I am going with the colored version
