Default One, Two, Buckle My Shoe

I shot this at the Rockford, MI dam. This little boy was outrageously cute.

One, Two, Buckle My Shoe. Before

I cropped the photo, changed the color to sepia, overlayed it with some black and white, and adjusted the luminosity and contrast.

Minus the feet I think I prefer the original too.

I like the second one, but then I am a big fan of b&w/sepia. I like the shadows in the first one better though, they are more defined.

I like the colored picture better but I'd fix the orientation. The sepia is a little too bland for my taste. BTW, you misspelled your last name in the sepia picture.

I like the first one. Can you try to make the first the way you did the second one?
I like the shadow.

The shadow is really nice in the first one - the second one, I am not a fan of the sepia here b/c its too modern of an environment - that's the only reason. Usually, I LOVE sepia...
