I'd prefer this 100% b&w or 100% color. I like the photo, but not the selective desat.

Beautiful photo. I love the selective desaturation job that you have done on this one, the subtle colours work really well. Nice composition and interesting subject. 10

Great take on this and love how they all seem to be interacting with the photographer. I'm just not sure if the desat really adds to it.

ack, a beautiful picture tainted by that cheesy selective desaturation effect.
 02/16/2006 08:18:59 PM
Wow, you got all 10 of my points!! :)

beautiful, really can't fault this picture, the compassionate desaturation, the depth of field and the composition are spot on.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

The concept is interesting, but the image is not realistic: the people look too happy for such back breatking work. I like the black and white.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This is a wonderful photo! What I love so much about this is how happy those laborers look. I think of all the times I've whined and complained sitting behind my desk in my air conditioned office. . yet, these women look so full of life. This is just awesome!!

nice desat...nice shot and true to challenge

Enjoy the subtlety you used to bring out the worker in the front. Fits the challenge well.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/14/2006 03:05:33 PM
This is a very nice depiction, but I'd have preferred the whole thing in color, or at least all the people in color. Still, good response to the challenge.

Beautiful shot and the selective chroma works very well her. 10

 02/13/2006 08:56:39 PM
I wonder why you choose to keep color in only one of the women.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/13/2006 09:53:28 AM
this is wonderful!

Dreamy look to this. Well done.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/13/2006 01:08:40 AM
I like the selective desaturation, but I think I would have kept the people in the back in color, just like the woman. I would also place her right in the middle. The way it is now, my eye gravitated towards the blurry people because they are smiling.

Nice shot though I don't understand your use of selective desat in this context... Great soft focus.
