I like both the original and the rework. Different effect, but both 
work well. I suppose the BW might have a tad more aesthetic appeal for 
most viewers.

Excellent job re-rendering that shot. I distinctly like the BW better 
as it seems sharper and with more texture, although the light is 
gorgeous on the colour shot.

The BW version is much improved, sharper and with more visible
detail, but the color version has a very nice moody light, so I can't
say which one I like better. Maybe you should try to improve the color
version also, the sharpening seems to be very different on that one.

I like the BW image better (better perceived sharpness and contrast). 
It almost has an IR look to it. Nice composition, regardless of BW or 
color.

Nice, but not lovely, as the original image is.  The
color adds a lot to this shot.

Thanks to all of you!

The original photo was taken a year ago, and my PP has improved a lot
since then.  I honestly think that I didn't apply any USM to the
original image.  I have done so on the BW conversion, and it's
obviously helped.

This will be one of the images that I use for the show that I have
planned this year.

Nice Mike. Both color  B+W.
Only nit I have is I'd like to see a little more space between the trees  
the L  R edges of the image.
