I’m surprised that a Canon shooter would allow photos to be taken with a Nikon! (just kidding)
Personal preference, but I prefer the color versions. They’re warmer and more “approachable”. I would soften up the b&w versions (less contrast). Her face and hair are too dark for me.
Overall, great poses and composition!
I’m with you on that. When I shot the photo, it was in the Monochrome preset on the Zf which looked nice but Photoshop doesn’t keep the Nikon Picture Profile look so it replaced it with what it thought was “close”
Larry's comment is a very good one. I have had the Nik Collection since it's inception. Works very well.
I am enjoying both for different reasons.
I would think she would enjoy these "Double P"!

I have the Nik collection, but I was forced to stop using it. For some reason it would destroy all the shadows. Anything I did or tried wouldn’t fix it. And it sucks because I really liked using it
Well I have had multiple "issues" with the Nik platform since DXO took over.
Sorry you had issues.
Dan
Granted, im using the NX from Google days when it was free so not sure if its compatible with the latest Adobe CS
When Nik sold itself to Google, they kept the phone Nik's Tech Support so any issues were quickly remedied. DXO fired Niks TS and have their own .DXO's TS is crap imho.
Keep using it until it "dies".
In addition, the old Nik had a plug in called "Focal Perspective(?). It was thee best for correcting focal distortions. If you still have that..KEEP IT!
