    B & W
    Mix



    then
    Colour

    But any would suit me, although I'm not a fan of graffiti, (on her arm)

    You could try with small "boxing gloves" as a "fun" shot - but maybe that is my mischievous mind

    Nice picture, and interesting blog!

    I agree with Bill, I too prefer the B&W version...

    I seem to like the B&W and mixed versions about equally - couldn't pick one over the other. The full color version is my least favorite, but its not that I DON'T like it! Just don't like it as much as the other two.

    Definitely 2. The first one is terrible (sorry) and the 3rd one just looks like a typical desaturated Photoshop image. The second one is cool though:) make it a bit less perfect and it's awesome:)

    Color first, though it's a bit too much color, even for me, and I'm known for liking brights. That said, it's very much in a classic illustration style, which color seems to suit best. Second favorite would be the mix, same reason.

    Behind The Camera. But home is in Montreal.
    So far that day by midnight Montreal time the Blog got <strong><span style="color:#990000;">842 unique visitors</span></strong>.

    From this crowd in total I got <strong><span style="color:#990000;">281 messages</span></strong> giving me their choices. Many people preferred to write their opinion in private e-mails. I noticed there is a fear out there for getting spammed by Spammers when you become public with your e-mails. This being said, at Blogspot (my Blog provider) lets you post in few ways. If you have a web site, or a member of Blogspot or few other such organisations, or you post under a name without any web referral, or anonymous. In eigther way, you can't post your e-mail at my Blog and make it public. You are safe in that way.

    <span style="color:#990000;"><strong>109 people preferred the MIX.
    57 people liked B&amp;W
    15 people liked COLOR

    </strong></span>Majority of the opinions were expressed the day of the Blog. I have gotten very few answers few days after the Blog post.

    I had to print out the names and cut them out. (except one Anonymous without a name) Put it in a basket and pulled out one name.

    The winner is: <strong><em><span style="color:#990000;">Vidar from Norway. His choice was Black &amp; White.

    </span></em></strong>I will mail the limited edition matted print as soon as I get his mailing address.

    Congratulations Vidar.
