This is AWESOME. It so draws you into the moment!!! I love everything about this picture: the depth of field, the selective saturated sepia tones. The sharpness of the pictures, but mostly just the subject. GREAT JOB! One of my favorites!
I don't really like the desaturation in this photo. There is something odd about the lighting...perhaps could use a boost in contrast and some sharpening. Face is OOF.
selective desaturation is an awesome tool, but slightly misused in this case. otherwise, great capture, interesting subject. the tie just draws way too much attention away from the singer's expression.
The selective desat strikes me as naff here. Compositionally it feels a little unbalanced, I'd have moved him to the right of the shot a tad. Your desat has resulted in some red to the side of his hat. Nothing's quite sharp enough.
