Both images are nice. So, I think it depends on your purposes and where you want to use it. If you just want a picture of your grandfather I'd say the b&w one (B - i guess) is the one to go with - the wider range of tones gives a better contrast and brings out the details. You could comprimise and try doing the sepia tone in a different way to make the contrast and range better on the sepia'd image to make a version that's "between" these two. Nice photo!

I like the sepia one for the authentic look (coz it makes you think it is older, hence original). The B&W is sharper, and I agree has more detail. But which is A and which is B? And then which one prints better? At the end of the day, I think you must make an emotional decision: which one makes you feel better? Will it be on display? If so, go with your wifes choice, life will probably be easier!! :)

The sepia is best. But the B&W is shaper but the face is do washed out.

In the BW version, you lost a lot of detail in the left side of the face. The sepia one, imo, lacks the contrast from the BW one. So: Load both as layers (if the sizes are identical of course) and merge using transparancy or /and a blend mode. That way both of you can be happy.

It's a squeaker. I prefer the sepia. The BW is a bit too dark in places.

the sepia has more detail, look at the face & light & not as burned out as the b/w :]

Both are very well done. But I have to say Example (A) as there is a bit too much light in (B) and it washes out the image.
mayuresh
both are well done , but can yu tell me how yu created that light effect or highlight one one side of his face, the black and white one?

The sepia looks better..it has more details than the b/w.

Siempre he considerado que una buena imagen es la que tiene m detalles, por ello prefiero es de la izquierda (sepia) (A)

The only photo I've seen of my grandfather is the one on his tombstone. Can you tell us a little about your grandfather? Was he a soldier? Did he see action in the First World War? I prefer the sepia, btw.
