Fancy wedding

I think perhaps a different angle would have worked much better. I had to really look before I quite figured out what this is - the angle given makes everything blend together in the busy-ness of bows, fender, mirrors, lights, and handles.

Cherry earrings

The cherries are beautiful, but I wonder about the choice of location on the body... seems a bit strange to me to place them at the ear (and to hold the ear in such an unnatural way) when there are much more interesting places for cherries... :)

Lunch Options

Love the title, and the pose/composition is excellent. The fish seems a little grainy (compared to the rest of the pic) and oversaturated, but otherwise an excellent shot.

Beat The Heat!

Not to be rude, but this is a so-so picture. The angle isn't very flattering, the light is very harsh, the divided background is pretty distracting, and you've got some pretty serious halos around your subject. That being said, I applaud the choice of items to desaturate - between the color and the title, you've brought attention not only to your concept, but to the idea behind the concept. (That is to say, it isn't a meaningless desaturation, or desat for the sake of desat.) This shows me that you've put some thought into the shot, you just might want to work on the execution a bit. :)

Great concept and great shot. There's some spots that didn't quite get desaturated, though, that a little more attention (or perhaps a different desat technique) could have taken care of.

Good lighting. I have to wonder if a different pose (to expose the complete tatt) wouldn't have worked better, though.

Nice action shot, and great use of the selective desat.

Pleasantly Purple

Comment:
Quite purple, but why? Not to offend, but it doesn't seem as though there is a purpose for the desat other than to fit the challenge. It's pretty, there just doesn't seem to be a point to it. Nothing to keep a viewer's attention, as it were.

This is, no offense, kinda creepy. The gray hair/body kind of gives her a 'Night of the Living Dead' vibe - not something I'd particularly want in a photo of a child. The composition is good, and the lighting, and her expression... I'm just not sure this was a good choice for a photo for this challenge.

Kiss

Interesting choice of desat placement. I think it does much more for the concept and the photo than it would have had you kept the couple in color and desatted everything else. Good choice.
