just because we can selectively desat doesn't mean we should. This instance it draws attention away from your very cute main subject (little girl) to the bear - opposite of where I would want my viewers eye to travel if this were my photo.

Very Beautiful, your eyes are really drawn to the sweet little girl! 10!

the selective desat makes her look gray.

I do not love partial desaturated images. In this case I find it really damaging an otherwise nice shot

I think if you're going to include the stuffed animal in the portrait, you need to give it equal weight - i.e. too dark on the bear.

The B&W face is more distracting than it should be. not sure why my eye sees it that way...

I think you desaturated the wrong thing here.

I like the setup of the composition. I think this photo would have had a bigger impact if the selective coloring was removed. Either a B&W photo or all color.

I don't see the point of desaturating her face for this. It just seems like desaturation for the sake of desaturation for me.

lovely composition: maybe too much post processing: might have left her with some colour
