Inside outside (potw #29)
This post continues last week’s theme of simple, uncluttered portrait pictures. I wouldn’t normally post two pictures of the same person, but I just can’t decide which of these I prefer, wider in colour or closer in black and white. What do you think?

I prefer the black and white one!
Yes, the b&w shot. There’s something deeper in the expression in that one.
Looking straight into the camera with that look…winner.
Prefer the black and white, mostly because he is looking right into the camera. That it is a tighter shot also helps.
I prefer the wider shot. There’s just something about the way he’s looking, waiting, anticipating something
been following the portraits. absolutely amazing!
I prefer the colour version, the hues of blue offer more perspective, maybe you could consider desaturating the face a little?
I enjoy the wider shot – something about the mystery of what he’s looking at and the punch of blue from the gates that pleases my eye!
Thanks for the replies everybody. I make it 4-3 to the black and whites, but there’s still time for the blues to make a comeback.
They are both excellent, hard to choose, but if I had to, the black and white due to the eyes ???? both great cheers callie
The color version pops up more than the black and white!
Wonderful shot, as always!
