This shot has wonderful composition and I can't believe it got a score like that, I guess because the selective desat didn't really add but it is an amazing photo nonetheless!

I like the photo in itself but i dont see how the desaturation plays a role in your photo. it has to underline something more. i guess if the guy is the only in color it makes him more alone, but then again you chose a setting where that fact doesnt strike the eye enough. in fact i didnt realise it until i read the challenge title.

You got serious oversharpening artifacts all around the person and the boom...

Nice job! The low perspective and wide angle really add a lot to this image. Nice use of negative space!

very oversharpened, the white glow distracts. nice concept, though

I think it would be as strong or stronger an image cropped to a square ... I really like the lighting, though on my monitor it looks a little more "orangey" than I'd have made it -- I think I'd try and make it a duller brown.
