My first time doing a Sel desat photo, so the processing was a bit trial and error(lots of errors...) and I kind of lost my patience a few times.
Shot with 2 strobes.
Processing (not in exact order, since I nearly gave up on this, let it sit for a little while and came back to it again, then having forgotten what the hell I had done so far in processing):
RAW conversion, Black&White layer, Hue/Saturation layers, Curves layers, Selective Color Layers to enhance leaf color and also to change the color on the bucket label, clone stamp on bucket label and a corner of a garden shed behind a distant tree, crop and rotate, resize, High Pass sharpening, gradient layer for vignette, border, save for web.

Researchers found that 2,177,888 people suffered ladder injuries from 1990 to 2005. With that, I wonder how you were able to get to those top branches with that little step stool.
There is much to like about this one, It is a clever shot indeed. 9 from me.
