I recently came across a similar, color version (above) of one of my favorite black and white photos (below). I completely forgot that I made this variation and it reminded me how much different a photo can feel just by changing the angle and making the choice to edit it in color rather than black and white. While the feeling of a photo is completely subjective, I personally get a very different narrative from the color image. The black and white version has a lost world, vintage, apocalyptic feel to it. While the color version seems slightly less ominous. The color in the grass and flowers gives the image a sense that nature has persevered and the soft green path gives an impression that humanity may still be coexisting. I enjoy both of these photos equally, but for different reasons.
