Hey Philippe,

The sepia version has a nice old-time look to it.  It could almost pass 
for a WWI era photo, but the tones are too good.  I think the color 
version is a bit to honest a depiction of his face.

The black and white version is just about right.  You are close enough 
to get a good look at the man and his tools.  You see who he is and what 
he does.  The only suggestion is that maybe you could crop a bit off the 
left to about where the ladder ends at the bottom.  I think that would 
make a stronger composition with the ladder making a nice diagonal element.
