Didn't do much gardening last year, so lots of work this year. Started today to cut off some holly and made a photo. (It's no weather to be outside, always a good excuse). Perhaps the text on the knife should be polished away, but I'm not sure if that's allowed with the advanced editing rules.
Shooted in raw, cropped, white balance adjusted + some other settings, noise reduction, added a gray layer (solid color), (mode: color), erased the red, yellow and green parts, so the color came back (berries in the back with less opacity), reduced size (+ some additional cropping) and sharpened.

This is a sort of odd picture, there's a lot going on, but there's not one thing that is the focal point in it. It's hard to know what to look at here. One little detail, since this is advanced, you could have cloned out the "RR22". I think it would be worth it to try a different angle, so that the clippers aren't so right in the front. Not sure though ....
great clarity...not sure about the selective desat or the composition overall...perhaps a bit of care in with the composition might have made this more interestig
