I think you can also try the background to be back & white and rest color. That would be look very cool :)

Another vote for the B&W one

Black and white does it for me....I love that it makes the photo shine more like silver.

I'm going with the color version. The B/W is nice but more depth to the color image.

Color! The B&W background tones are too much like the subject and to me it doesn't stand out well.

When I look at the world through a camera, I tend to focus.

To me the bronze colors work best, the overall tonal values match better than the B&W, even though I prefer to work in black & white, some subjects should be left to color, emotional subjects, nostalgia etc, this doesn't evoke either.

This thread got "re-tweeted" by Needimages, using the color version.

Ok I have to say it looked at this long I see a blue tone to the "B&W" but I really do like the color one
