Beautiful composition. I prefer the b/w, think it would make a superb print.

Another good decision on editing. the color version is bland and the dragonfly gets lost. Here you made it stand out and the tones are excellent. good job.

I love this interpretation. Great editing. I think it takes a rather dull photo and adds interest and a sense of age.

I love this picture both in terms of the challenge itself and as an image in its own right. Too often pictures of this kind can either appear either too staged/cutesy or intrusive. This avoids both those bear traps and feels like a genuine shot of both a man and his culture

Great black and white conversion. Hope it does well for you
