Crop is excellent! The way the background is blurred reminds me to an SLR camera, am I right? Desaturating your model gives her a statue effect, there is very little life in her. This technique can be really expressive sometimes. :-) I love the maple leaf shaped shadows on her a much.

Good idea. desaturation is a bit weird on the plant she is holding, looks like skin tones come through the leaves.

Now this is a great use of selective desaturation because it adds something to the image - your beautiful model is transformed and is neither entirely within the realm of the living nor entirely within the realm of the cold, stone statue. The lush green of the leaves highlights that blur between flesh and stone. I particularly like the touch of pink left in her nipples and lips and also the shapes of the shadows falling on her chest and neck. Beautiful work!

Interesting use of desaturation. Makes the subject look like a statue. I think the shadows on the chest distract a little

Comment by mrorange002:
good desat, her left arm is kinda messed up though (can see a line along the edge around the elbow)
I think the hair that is visible kinda blows the illusion though 7

Something about this just intrigues me. I really like the finishing you used with this image. Very classic, yet fresh, feel to it.

I love this shot! I love the contrast of the green and desaturated skin. Love the grain on the skin to; gives a stuesque feel to the model. Beautiful lips! Excellent composition. 8

An interesting shot, I presume your PP has made your model look like a statue. I like the faint leaf outlines on the upper torso. Shame about the bad halo running around your model. Imaginative shot.
