I was out driving around in Kingston, Ontario while visiting friends, and found this unused gravel road covered with apples that had fallen from the tree; they were still falling as I was taking pictures.
Editting included cropping, shadows/highlights, UM, Replace Color, dodging and burning, etc.

Neat use of selective desat! I personally would have wanted to darken the desaturated portions of the photo for a little extra pop. Black against color usually works better than grey against color. Just a thought. Also as a nitpick, that streak of blue in the upper left corner of the image is a little distracting. In any case this is a good image.
I like the idea but not the weird lines between areas of colour and desaturated areas. I'd love to see the original full-colour version. DOF and composition works for me.
