Would appreciate some views about the following shot.
Taken last year on a boat cruise around NY harbour.
I spotted this group of young girls posing for a shot taken by someone on the lower deck.
C and C welcomed.

Antman - this is a fun shot, but I think it'd work better in B&W..colour would liven it up. It also looks too dark on the left hand side (as you look at it) on my LCD.

I think I agree with Geoff although I'm a little confused.

To me the B & W has little life in it. Colour would certainly give it more life. (saying that without seeing a colour version)

I think it is an excellent shot, but it looks a bit under-exposed to me - color could look good or it could look terrible, definitely worth a try though.

Ooops...wally alert!

I meant colour would liven it up!! Doesn't suit B&W to me.

Thanks for the comments.

On reflection it does look a bit dark and gloomy.

Here's a similar shot but in colour.
