Possibly a great B&W shot - or a nice color shot. Afraid I personally don't think the desat helps here.

Nice long shutter speed making the milky water - not sure about the red flowers though they do distract a bit.

I'm so sorry, but can I ask why you chose this technique for this image? My eyes are drawn to the bushes and I don't get to enjoy the way you have captured the water. Again, I apologize, it's a personal crusade.

I love the way you only left the orange tones. Beautiful shot!

Such a shame you didn't make your image larger. A border would have really helped IMO as well. I like the selective desaturation and the unusual composition. 6

Excellent interpretation of the theme, I like the blur of the water. I'm not entirely sure that keeping the color in the flowers was the way to go in this shot. I guess I'd have to see the full B&W version in order to judge the benefit of keeping some color in the shot.

Wonderful shot. I like the washed out look to add to the 'dead' feeling in the hand. DOF is perfect as well.

also, just comparing how many 10s you got, you should have been in the top 10.

too bad you were screwed by all the people who voted you a 1 just because it was graphic and shows violence. you should have done so much better. if you don't take a picture of something warm and fuzzy you pay the price (like my shot this week is paying).

i wouldn't be discouraged by your finish. you got a whole lot of 8-10s.
