Way too colorful. Needs more DOF, and creame is overexposed. While I am at it, use a cup that isn't stained.

IMO, this photo dnmc. I believe the intention of the challenge was to take a b&w photo in color mode. This is why desaturation was discouraged. I don't think the challenge was to shoot a color photo with b&W in it. It may be a suttle difference in interpretation. As for the photo itself, a sharper focus might help. Good luck in future challenges.

Sorry, but IMHO there's way too much color in this to meet the spirit of this challenge.

Pretty shot but it should be black and white or greyscale. Too much color here.

Your subject appears to be the bowl and cup of coffee which aren't black and white. A little more emphasis on the coffee and Milk would have hleped. The photo also ins't really that sharp either.
