Hello Jack, Not being much of an expert with B&W, this is just my opinion...The bark looks better in B&W, nicer texture to it. The contrast seems a bit too strong, though. Whether in B&W or color, the overall image comes across as too busy to me. The foreground grasses and the unending trees just make my eyes wander around without really settling anywhere. The B&W seems to accentuate this so the overall image feels better to me in color.
