Interesting shot and a great background.
Not really sure the selective desaturation works that well on this one though, as it makes the sky & the water the main focal point as the eyes are drawn naturally to the part that jumps off the page (the color), instead of being drawn to the focus of the challenge, being people.
Not too sure how I feel about the selective desat, but the effect is interesting. It'd have been great if it wasn't quite so processed, but this is still a great picture. Interesting take (tying the title in with the effect); it's fun to see something different. Focus and such are very good, and the setting is great.
most ppl would have desaturated everything but the girl
does not convey the idea of space to me
nice comp and posture, but the desat is a major turnoff for me
I wonder if you will get comments such as 'the background' on colour distracts from the little girl'? Personally I love the way you have done it, bit more light on the girls face would be better, but overall very nice!
I'd rather see the child in color and the scene in black and white. She is the subject of this image. I do like the background and her open armed stance.
Interesting use of IR. I don't oppose to the use of IR, I just feel the pose of your subject doesn't add to the shot. Had you used a more inviting flattering pose it may make for a more powerful image.
Nice work however I think you can improve this if you would have left the color there. I think changing to b/w and leaving the blues hurts this more than helps it. 7 anyway.
