I'm not sure whether I prefer the (semi high-key) colour or the (slightly more than semi high-key) Black'n'White?

Definitely the black and white for me. In the colour the people in the background stand out which distracts me from the legs. In the B & W they vanish (almost)

Out of the two, I like the B/W image best, as the background is not distracting. But that's only me

How do you view these? I get 'page not found' message.

I'll go against the early grain and say I like the colour better. Bright happy and cheerful, and I think it makes the legs and the people in the background standout neither of which I mind. For me the people in the background form an intergral part of the picture, sort of the group of them, vs the soul reader in jeans. I like it.

B&W for me.

I prefer the colour - especially the contrast between the denim and the stone. The colours in the background don't distract me.

Colour - adds depth and the legs are not lost

B&W for sure with me. i agree with the points made about the coloured people in the background, they detract attention from the main subject. in the B&W ur intention is much clearer.
