Took this on the continental divide in Montana recently and would love to hear your opinions on which works better for you. Of course, you can suggest it's just not worth the effort, either, but what the hell, eh? I like it.

From a point of view of disguising the leaf rot, the b/w wins. However, the flower looks good in colour. Could this be one of those times where selective colouring is acceptable.

Color unless there's a compelling reason to make it BW.
