 Didn't made so many photos this week, so this is a kind of double post. Posted the colored version for the Food/Cooking Side Challenge.

Very nice, but I also prefer the color more. I think the bright lower left draws my eye from the fruit.

I like the color version of this shot better. This one seems flat and the conversion gives the appearance that the pears are the same color as the wall.

There's an incongruity between the texture of the pear and the texture of the wall. I think that incongruity (which is a good thing) works a bit better in the color version.

The b&w version is lacking a bit. It looks a bit flat. Composition is great though.

a wonderful study in textures and tones.

The pear slices are beautifully sharp and pleasing minimal composition.
Side by side, the colour and black & white, and I am not sure if a comparison is really valid, depending upon actual edit & conversion - the strong yellow luminance has translated to harsh washout and awkward background gradient transition in black & white.

I think this one works better in color, my eye keeps noticing the texture from the background.

Nice shapes and composition. B&W and color versions each have their merits.
