murky desat does not mitigate the negative impact of the background on this otherwise excellent actionshot.

A good action shot rich in detail with plenty to look at. A good exposure and clever conversion with the rich color tones of the dog contrasting with the grayscale background.. A worthy entry into the challenge with good detail and a terrific action component.

Love the expression. Not at all a fan of the selective desaturation. :~)

If you are going to go with selective desaturation you should get it right......I can see many areas that you missed and that really detracts from the photo.

Good action shot but the editing ruins the photo for me, sorry.
