Love the title! The motion is cool too. Your PP is totally legal. It's easy to selectively desaturate in basic - especially if your original has colors that cooperate! It's because you did such a good job on the PP that people didn't believe it. Keep shocking 'em!

Nice shot - a little too centered and the purple could be a little brighter.

looks like a rule breaker here...you can't selectively desaturate under the basic editing rules...
