Susi,I suppose you took a lot of photos of that amazing people in colour,so you want to try a few of them in B&W.
I tell you that because I believe this kind of subjet are better in colour for their decoration,their tattoos,colour skin,etc...
In any case,I like very much this photo.Good POV,good focus.
You also choosed a perfect moment to shoot.
Gia sou Susi,hasta siempre.
