I'm not normally a fan of selective desat, but this one gets a bonus point since I didn't even realize you'd used the technique at first. It all felt very natural, and I think with a brightly colored background the horse may have gotten lost. Nicely done.

Nice work on the selective desat. Really works here to isolate the subject.

I like your post processing. For me, I think I would like it better if the background were maybe blurred a little bit to keep the focus in the main horse. Good title for you image too.
