The colored version.

Hi Maurizio,

Since you image is stunning, either way has the same impact for me.

When a beautiful young woman takes a pose like this, it is the lighting and sharpness and expression captured that is the essence of the image.

Obviously, the color version identifies the skin tones better, and the belly jewelry is more vivid.

Excellent work.

Regards, Mike

I like B&W a lot.Lovely image and model.

Both versions works well for me. My only comment is that I would prefer not to crop off her right fingers. Congrats.

Personally I find that black and white reduces the glamour component of "nudes" and facilitates considering them as artistic works, but there are of course exceptions. There is a wonderful pose and expression caught here, the work is very elegant, bravo. 

I like the B/W version.  Regards A.W

For this work I would prefer the colour but they really both look excellent....big Bravo!

sicuramente prediligo il colore,addolcise lo sguardo un po melanconico.

grazie per la condivisione,alla prossima avventura :-)paul

Excellent eyes! I prefer the BW version.

One day I hope to like one of your colour versions more than the black and white version. I have to say, I don't think that is going to happen any time soon.

Lovely... as usual.

Black and white for me.  Once again a excellent shot.

Excellent work and I think that bw shows better the artistic part of this image,but is just a matter of taste,compliments.

Its a great shoot, the B&W works great but she has lovely skin tones in the colored one.

Best regards Tore

I definitely prefer the color because color adds additional contrasts that usually increases the visual tension. With this image, the color draws my eye back to her lips and the tonal contrast draw my eye to her eyes. For me, this heightens the emotional impact of the image.
