Hmm... I did try this myself and found the difference in mood to be quite dramatic - even with only one curve point eg. input: 224 output: 192 (although I normally use 2 curves adjustment layers).

Mmm, yes. And blending mode set to Multiply for slightly crisper areas of shade.

I like the B&W when you are not really shure it is totally B&W or a bit sepia then for me your B&W phot with 10% of sepia

I would have to say BW

Color has the most interest. I don't find the subject that interesting, the design is too chaotic. If it was simplified and maybe a subject to focus on, it might have more impact. Maybe a colorful bug on the grass.

Well, agains all expectations, i'm not that much for the sepia. I prefer the colors, but the B&W just gives out a different feeling, it's kinda colder or something...
Anyway these are awesome pics!
