The desaturation could have been a bit smoother. There is a sharp edge that doesn't make it smooth and natural. Otherwise, a good image.

I like the look of the beans, just not so sure about the post processing. Does meet the challenge non the less =]

I think this would have been more effective with less editing, specifically the edges of the beans are distracting.

Beautiful DOF... but my eye wants just a tiny bit more of the petal in focus to be more in view. Macro photography/lenses mean you have to dial the aperture to a lower number to get the same effect as with a wider view - so if you'd normally shoot at 2.8 then you'd have to shoot at 5.6 to get the same effect with a macro lens.

Good idea but I am really not digging the editing on this image. A bit too funky for my tastes.

Interesting take on the challenge, i don't think whatever filter you added to this really helps the image though

I am convinced that is a store. An Apple store is another thing.
