I like the oomph the green of the grass gives to the photo.

Very nice lighting and use of color. Would like to see something like this with a human element to evoke a little more feeling.

I like the effect. It was a good idea to leave the colour of the grass. There is something appealing in this picture. 9.

I like this a lot. It's very evocative & well-composed, but I wonder if I'd like it better in full color. I guess I understand the reason behind the selective desat - to emphasize the squalor of the building. But for me, it's emphasizing the grass more - I find I'm looking at it more than anything. 7
