Hi Jim again.
I much prefer the image in B&W. However? If it were used with a series of 
other colour images it would be just fine in colour. 
What happens often is, a single image is in colour and it sit's there alone 
and viewers are inclined to shoot it down "only because all the other photos 
are B&W!" Over riding the colour.
Put it in a colour spread and it looks great. And that situation can be 
visa-versa?
cheers,
ted

Thanks, Ted.  Here is the link to the color image.  As I told Lluis, I 
prefer the BW.
