I like them both, but the color really came out good in the first one.

I'm normally inclined to perfer the B&W, but the colors in your 1st one are too good.

Well done.

I'll put my vote for the first one. You lose that glass lake effect in the B&W. Good shot.

Sounds like the consensus is clearly with the color! Thanks for the comments. This one was fun.
