Comment by Dave Gordon:
I like the colors, and the concept ofseparating plant life from background using desaturation. Very pretty shot.

The color really works and jumps out at you! I think for me, it is too tightly cropped and centered to keep my interest as long as it might with a different composition.

Comment by nordic:
the angle is too flat I feel as the de-sat leaves in the centre make the image look a little false

doesn't work well. Too much color. The subject just isn't very interesting.

Too tight of a crop - not enough background desat to make it look like a desat picture.

Alright, but most of it is still in color, not much for comparison. . .

Wow! This is awesome! Reminds me of one of my sons favorite movies Bugs Life.

The use of the mirror as a compositional and storytelling tool made me stop and look a while during voting. That's a good sign so I scored it an 8. :)
This may be a bit of work, but I wonder how it would work if you had used a low reflector with gold color to bring more warmth and more light balance into this shot. It would not be visible in the mirror. The light on the arm and cheek is very harsh and cool now.
