I think this is my favourite shot of the challenge. Perhaps the only criticism I can give on it is to be careful when trying to make hands look dirty. When there's genuin filth involved, it tends to settle into the cracks & grooves of your hand, rather than sitting on the surface and leaving the grooves clean. But that's a very minor critique on an excellent photo.

A wonderful entry and the title is fantastic! I think the title on it's own is worth a high vote. Of course, we don't vote on the title. I want to know how you did this sort of selective desat within basic editing rules.
