I'm not finding the selective desat really adds anything here, in fact it pulls my eye away from the portrait of the boy.

Why the selective desat? Is it really his shirt that you want to show off? It looks like he might have blue eyes -- might have included those.

Colors seem a little dull. Needs a little sharpness in the middle of each flower I think. Maybe some contrast.

I really don't get the selective desaturation here. The colour use seems to suggest that the shirt is more important than the boy. I've seen this done commercially, but to me it doesn't make sense. I'm sure this would look really good in colour though.

I find myself wishing the colors in this were more vivid.

Could be even better under different lighting conditions.

I love the expression - and i think in just black and white it would be a lovely image- or...if there was perhaps at ouch more color to balance it / eyes - rosey cheeks or even some tone to the skin desaturated to draw the eye back up- but instead my eye keeps going to his shirt instead of focusing and remaining on his adorable face :-)

I like the composition and the subject matter here, but the photo feels a bit flat. Perhaps bump the contrast just a touch.
