My first post! I have been debating between color vs monochrome version of this photo. Perhaps you guys can share with me your thoughts. All comments are welcome and appreciated. Thanks.
The mono is nice but the color one really pops. I love the background but I would darken the tile to her left (right as we are looking) I like the lighting and processing. Really nice for a first post.

You can't turn that red dress black and white....color for sure! I'd back off of the black clipping though, you are losing quite a lot of detail in your shadows (hair and clothing).

Have to agree with Lisa on this one: Colour in this case but i really think it is possible to get quite a bit more out of the B&W rendition. No offense.
Great shot, nice model and costume :-)
Good work

Color all the way. The crop on the couch is a little tight for my tastes but you obviously know exactly what you want and how to get it, so please don't stop what you are doing. Killer work.
To my eyes, the regular square background seems inappropriate and out of place with the lady's wardrobe and design of the couch. Might it be worthwhile to replace the background with a different one?
If I hadn't seen the color one, I'd have been blown away by the monochrome. However, I have to agree with the consensus here. The way the red accent's it is quite stunning.
