Challenge: Hidden Gem 3,000 (Archival) (Standard Editing*)
Camera: Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II
Date: Mar 8, 2014
ISO: 800
Shutter: 1/2000
Date Uploaded: Mar 5, 2020

 Shot with OMD EM1 and a Samyang Fisheye lens.
Not normally one for a desaturated image but the colours in the background of this deep DOF image were distracting to the impact I wanted to create for this shot. The desaturated image puts all the focus on the subject whilst giving you an understanding of the background which in a lot of the image was actually grey tones anyway.

nice PoV, the selective color works well to isolate the subject, guessing it would be much busier in full color
