Nice shot. I like them both. I don't think either is better, they are just different IMO. I slightly prefer the B+W version but that's just me.

Color. You might consider bumping your contrast and bumping up your blues and greens as well. Also, try playing with the shadows a bit.

color definitely! the b&w needs more contrast to intrigue me more. would've been nice to see the rest of the tree but kinda hard at this angle lol.

I think the color has potential if you'd turn on image editing I'll upload an edit on it.

Both seem underexposed in the foreground.
