I usually dislike selective desat, but something attracts me to this alot. The tones, and lensbaby is very fitting. Lovely work.

I've not see Ben much use selective desat, but I can hardly claim to have studied his entire oeuvre. As these things go, this is a thoughtful and tasteful application of it.

Comment by tnun:
I am taking this very personally. The dark shape on the left is either a monk or a nun, skirting the clearing, having long forsworn that berry bad colour which you so brazenly brandish. I'm sorry - "I'm sorry" is my fabourite comment - but I am offended that you insist on bringing this up.

Oh, that's a beautiful mystery! My first thought was that the figure on the left is a monk hiding the recipe of the ambrosian liquor that he makes from the fruit of an unknown weed (a true story of the chartreuse liqueur).
Must say that I have a fondness for a picture that makes me think immediately of a story, or make one, or reminds me of a smell or a painting or an unknown longing. This is one of them, and there were a few in this challenge, as befitting its "theme".

No food, we all starve, yes bleak indeed. But this photo is awesome.
