to much colour in this for me, sorry.

Love the concept and the salt/pepper hair but too much color for me in this challenge. A close crop on the face with a black or white shirt would have been great. especially with all the smoke. Close but no cigar:)

I think this would be an awesome portrait with a little photoshop work. Take the top 1/2 of the photo, blur the background just a bit and convert to black and white. The light from the match will add a soft glow. Just a thought.

I dont feel this meets the challenge, I was looking for b&w recreations, or even inturpreting this as the subject is b&w yours is not. The subjects hair is, but the man is the actual subject.

Wrong challenge maybe?

Sorry, but it seems to me the challenge applies to the whole photo, not one small detail. I can ignore a small spot of color in the background of a mainly black and white rendition, but this does not meet the challenge.

Too much color for the B/W part of this challenge. Subject does not consist of a large enough portion of the image to be considered the actual subject despite the title. Great image, technically fine, IMO: Not in the spirit of the challenge. Nominate for OOBIE.

Too much color to be on topic, in my opinion.

Hemi-score.

I like this photo in that it takes a second look to get to the black and white .... also interesting how the flame is illuminating the subject's face
