Not to be rude, but this is a so-so picture. The angle isn't very flattering, the light is very harsh, the divided background is pretty distracting, and you've got some pretty serious halos around your subject. That being said, I applaud the choice of items to desaturate - between the color and the title, you've brought attention not only to your concept, but to the idea behind the concept. (That is to say, it isn't a meaningless desaturation, or desat for the sake of desat.) This shows me that you've put some thought into the shot, you just might want to work on the execution a bit. :)
