Bumping up to 6. I like this image very much because the composition and lighting work very well, however, the desat does not appear to blend in and complete the image. The composition is great.
I think this is an amazing composition, and great tonal range and lighting captured. My two nit-picks are that the flowers are too bright and plastic looking for me (I think I would have not kept them in color) and the foreground details a bit soft for my taste.
Good graveyard and clear capture. Maybe a bit too much colour there in the non-desat part (on my monitor). And in a funny position - maybe woud have been better if on a thirds line. Not sure that the backlighting is really working here.
Loved the photo! I wonder what it would look like if more of the flowers were color but faded in Saturation as they are further away from the tulips?? One of my top picks!
I am making two passes on this Challenge. I will vote on your photo then return later(before voting is over) to comment on what I like and dislike about your shot. You can take the comments however you wish and I will try not to be mean. Just don't take it the wrong way.

I like it. Love how you left the color in the flowers. Good job.
A good overall picture, but personally I don't like the colored tuips.
The tombstones look a little dark too.
The background of mountains is great as are the clouds.
