Need some input: Black and white, or color for this pic?

I REALLY like the last image you posted. I am a very symmetrical person and think that the detail and color you got in that is very nice! Great Job!

As far as the first two, I like them both but there is just not enough there to get me excited. Good clarity though.

With the first set of leafs, I'd go with the B&W one. The only things that bug me about the picture is the part of the leaf that is on the right side of the picture thats cut off. Also my eye is drawn to the leaf with the shadow for some reason. It is a great place to start from, and we look forward to seeing more!

On the second shot, I have one almost exactly like it. I ended up with it in B&W, and on a black background. It made the leaf texture stand out much more.

color, by a mile.
