Should it be B&W or color? Help me decide.....

[coastietech]

I took a series of shots today and I can't tell whether I like them in color or B&W. Please let me know what you think. As always I would really appreciate any critique or advice you can give me to become better.

Set 1

Set 2

Set 3

Set 4

Set 5

I think all but set 4 should be in color. Set five can go both ways. You have some nice color in the flowering trees... I would hate to see you lose that color to B&W.

All of them in color!

the colors are to amazing to not leave as is. i say COLOR

The colors are amazing, but there's almost too much stuff going on with the leave patterns and the grass and your subject matter that I get very distracted. Maybe it's adult ADD, but I like black and white for them, perhaps with the exception of number 5.

4 should definately be color, but the rest can go both ways. However, I like them in color better. You have a good eye by the way, nice comp.

I prefer them in b&w. Don't know why, I just feel that way looking through all of them.

I like set 2 & 5 the most. Gives me a calm yet a little lonely feeling

I say also color
