I love the scene you captured in this. I would have preferred a bit less blur in the background - it looks a little too soft for me. I am on the fence about the de-sat, but I think I would have preferred a bit softer of yellow. All this is, of course, just my personal opinion.

I am making two passes on this Challenge. I will vote on your photo then return later(before voting is over) to comment on what I like and dislike about your shot. You can take the comments however you wish and I will try not to be mean. Just don't take it the wrong way.

I wish you had better depth of field. I like the yellow being left alone though.

I like that you took this photo from the side, and not the front. It would help if you could get the background more blurry, this will isolate your subject, and make that water bottle less distracting. I would also take the photo from a lower angle to give it a more interesting perspective.

I think this good picture could have been greatly improved with some cropping-- don't really need the water bottle on the guy blowing his nose!!

Great shot! I like your idea of keeping the flowers yellow. I only wish the flowers looked sharper... they look a little out of focus and the yellow really brings that aspect out.

I like this. The poles are a bit of a distraction but overall nice shot.
