Nice post-processing on the desaturation, great shoes :) I have looked at this one a few times now, trying to figure out why it is that, despite good editing, the image doesn't appeal to me that much (yet the thumbnail is clearly interesting enough for me to open the image up again). I think it's the cut off upper body primarily, somehow it feels disjointed that way. I'll check back tomorrow to see if you have left some photog comments.
selective color looks very nice in this photo. smooth legs ;) I think it would look better when the canvas at the bottom wasn't wrinkled, nonetheless I give you an 8
I'm trying really hard to fault this but it's just not working. I bet this is one of the most looked at photographs in the challenge & I can see why. This is excellant.
The desaturation here works really well. Also a very nice composition. I think if the sheet on the floor was totally black, or at least flat, it would have made a big difference though.
I'm not really caring for the selective desat here. The cold tone makes her skin deadish to me. I think the pose is good. I'm not sure about the backdrop at the bottom with the rippled black and gray - what is that?
