I much prefer the color rendition. It has a magical feel to it due to the colors, the beauty of the animal and the rain drops.
The B&W is too contrasty for me -- in that is detracts my eye from the subject and the beauty around.
Superb!!

Thank you. Nice explanation. As a result I think the colour one is winning the race.

the coloured one is better...
the b/w version has too much contrast in my opinion while in this one the contrasts are easily shared upon the entire photography

First time I've seen a South African in the recent deviations list. hehe.
Very nice, I wish I could go and get a 1D, simply for the lovely colours it captures.
Well done!
