One of the best uses of selective de-sat that I have seen - the sepia effect was a really good choice.

This is so cool re him being the only figure in full color.

Cool. I like him being the only figure in color. I've not mastered that tecnique yet. You did it very well. Nice capture.

Certainly a very creative touch. I like this image a lot.

The selective desat creates a surreal effect - it's like he's dreaming or something. I am anxious to see the original color version, but I am still giving this high marks. Well done.

Very nice use of selective color... I especially like how you did the background sepia instead of b&w. Great photo and excellent composition! Great job!

One of the rare instances where I really like selective desaturation. Focus is good, with few distractions despite the conditions of the photo; I even like this in colour, which is something different for me. Nice shot!

Very good choice of selective desaturation, making the artist impact over the crowd. Good job!!!

Usually I am tired of the color/B&W shots, but this one is very tastefully done. 9

Selective desat is scary, but this isn't too extreme and kind of works. Nice job. When I look at this picture, I can hear him playing.

This is going on my favorites list after the voting!

I like the way the people around him appear ghostlike and disinterested and the way the color of the violin sort of pulls them in

A great use of selective saturation...nice work here.

Finally, a select color that actually looks good!!!! Bravo. I can't tell you how many selective colors look forced. This one is nice....-9

this is fantastic. the colours are great - the people match beautifully to the violinist. If only there was no blurry hair on both sides
Post actions
Wow I really like this... The colored main subject attracts the eye right away, but then it's really a joy to look around at all those candid expressions all around. The violinist looks a bit like a psycho-killer but that's cool.

An interesting use of desaturation, but I would like a litle tighter crop

I like the way you've isolated your subject with the selective saturation. I think I would appreciate a more head on view of your subject.

This one really draws you in. Very neat photograph!!

Very well done. Nice concept. 8

Fantastic composition and wonderful desaturation and toning. I like the relatively clean processing, though there are some jaggies along the curve of the violin and the edge of the bow as a result of aggressive edge sharpening. Overall a solid and well-deserved 7.
