I like how some of the leaves are brown and others aren't.

Very nice use of desat to tell a story and keep the viewer focused on what's important. This should make the front page IMO. Good luck!

Beautiful. What makes this shot even extra lovely are the colored leaves around her.... extremely creative. 10.

I think I would like this better if all of the leaves on the ground were desaturated, highlighting only the girl and the leaf that she's holding.

Lovely job on the desat. The crop feels a little 'tight' to me on the right and the bottom, but not too bad. Love the expression and pose.

sweet image. love the innocence conveyed here. I don't think I really like having the other leaves in color though. I'd say maybe just her or perhaps even keep the leaves slightly saturated (40% maybe) with a slow fade off with the perspective. Just some suggestions. As a piece for your portfolio I'd probably like to see the selective desat scraped altogether.

Adorable.

You cheated...using a Cherub is a sure fire way to guarantee a good photo.
I appreciate that you hand picked a couple of leaves to color as well, but not all of them. Good show...that was a nice subtle touch.
