I had to remember what color profile I liked  better in the D300 - Dx2Mode 2

I prefer the muted colours of the second version.  More interest and more texture.

I prefer the colour version too.
I would even punch up the colours a bit :)

The coloured version gives the warmth of  golden light. Definitely so much richer than the BW
Great image Armando

I like the color version much more. 

The warm and subtle coloring is very nice to look at, but from the way the fisherman is dressed, I am not so sure he was very warm at all.

The scene reminds me of Lake Chapala.  My wife and I were there only for short time on a tour in 2005.
