Let there always be music. Bumping up.

Sorry, can't stand that selective D-sat look anymore. And, I'm sorry to say, I don't feel like you make terribly original use of the technique. And just using a technique won't give you high scores on here. I know from my own experience. Try to focus on getting a well composed, nicely lit, sharp picture that makes good use of perspective and DOF and that is at least a little ORIGINAL. This isn't.

No offense, please, I'm just trying to help.

Cheers,
Bruce

PS: gave you a 4 for uninspired but technically sound

Nice idea. But I find the hue/saturation changes you've applied cause the eye to get drawn to the jewellery and the buttons on the synth. And why a synth? - A real piano would be much nicer for this type of shot.

I do not understand why you want me to look at the blue jewelry...

I'm not sure that the de-sat does anything for this photo.

Nice, but the light is a little uneven (close-range flash?).

I don't know what to make of this. It definitely holds my attention.

I think the flash is the issue here.

blues are too distracting.....feel they take away from the image instead of adding here

Awwwww. .. reminds me of my mom at the piano! Very emotive for me! Great job!

Not a fan of onboard flash which is not flattering to old hands and gives a shadow next to the hands which makes this look like a snapshot. I can't understand your decision to desaturate except for blue. Why?!

Like the B&W and would have preferred it be that way. The turquoise is distracting.
