You really do not want to bore us to death though, do you? Who would then read and comment on your posts? LOL

So, on the topic b&w vs color this gets really difficult since they are not the same photos. Of the color ones I really like the top one, the perfect middle of the reflection is perfect(ly imperfect). The other color ones are good, too, just not great, great - in my opinion - please let me know if this German is being too direct - though I do like all the reflections in the photos.

Overall, I do prefer the b&w versions of your shoot. There's just something magic about leaving it all to shape and values and leaving out the color.

I hope you don't have to wait too long for the bulbs to do their business.
