This is a very nice shot but two people strolling by does not a crowd make. Also, you used selective desaturazition rather than minimal depth of field to isolate your subject. Some of the background has been blurred but not enough for me to consider it minimal depth of field. At any rate, the couple are focused just as sharply as the flutist and the idea was to single out a single subject from a crowd.
Beautiful post processing here... I think you've done a good job of singling out the fearless musician with both an interesting composition and creative post-processing. Initially voted it a 9... coming back for a bump to 10.
Honestly, the selective desat doesn't work for me on this one. It's a good shot, but the selective desat gives it too much of an artificial feel for me.
would have been better without singling out with color. the full-color subject against the dull blue background do not work together. it's too much -- the musician almost looks photoshopped in.
