Interesting use of selective desaturation. I think the harsh lighting makes the shot a little too busy with all the bright highlights and dark shadows mixing all over the frame. I think I would like the shot a little more if the flowers were much closer taking up much more of the frame.

The selective coloring is good because otherwise I wouldn't even see the flowers. I still find the frame too busy.
