A couple of images we took a couple of weeks ago at sunset with my friend Zofia. Nikon Z5 with Voigtlander 75mm F1.5 Nokton. Posting the vintage style processed color versions and B&W converted ones.
I think she's concerned that the truck won't start and she'll have to walk back to town in those boots!
Kidding aside, some nice work. The vintage color is more appealing to me than the high contrast B&W. In keeping with the vintage theme, I might have opted for lower contrast and maybe a bit of film grain on the B&W. Just personal preference.
Thanks for the feedback everyone! This was a fun "hang and shoot" with Zofia at a local cider-bar-restaurant overlooking Boulder, CO and the mountains. We only shot for 14 minutes right before sunset to capture that magic light. ... and yes, Zofia makes it easy to capture appealing images.

There's just a kiss of incongruity between the theme and the processing in the mono.
The mono is nice (my slim preference). Some harmony between PP, theme and mood alignment might move the mono from nice, to >> NICE !!! ... and then it could become a strong preference.

Great feedback! I may re-process the B&W's in LR and DXO Silver Effex over the weekend if I have time. I fully agree that a bit more of that vintage processing would add to the feel of these.
