Spectacular location. I'd love to get there one day. I think the B&W version works best - perhaps you could nudge the contrast up a bit but not much. I think colour would have worked better earlier or later in the day, although I don't know the location and excessive shadows might be a problem - it just looks a bit flat in colour.
