Hey Jesse congratulations on a new personal best score.
I didn't have time to vote in this challenge but I certainly would have given you a 6 or 7 for this image.
Great use of selective desaturation, the colour of the cereal box really making the image pop.
I especially like the slight reflection of the bowl in the table.
Good work, I look forward to seeing your next entry.
Now that's creative. Box is sharp, but the boy is a little out of focus. They appear to be on the same plane. Could be what you intended. Great shot, good luck, Mike
The rather odd eye is a extreme negative and the use of grayscale with object color is becoming much to common a technique to be truly effective in these challenges. Additionally, the lighting is insufficient which probaly caused the rather odd point singularity in the eye of the child and an unfortunate light bloom on the lid of the cereal box. A little more thought while composing would have helped and certainly in post processing, these faults should have been caught.
