1. Color.

The green plant and his red pants make the eye travel around the photo.

Great photo.

5. It's hard for me to pick as they both work so well.

The strength of the photograph is the little round face and the eye contact. Once the eyes meet the viewer is locked in and emotion sucks you right in. Color or B&W makes no difference after the eyes draw us in.

Very strong.

6. The color! It's vivid and how I see things. Vibrant, mesmerizing. It grabs my attention...

and won't let go.
