Wow, the desat on this with the orangy-red hair really makes this an eye catcher. The composition is very good and works well with movement/flow of the hair. Possibly her face could be a bit sharper, maybe a touch too shallow on the DOF. Nice job!

I'm not a fan of selective desaturation, but this really works because that orange/red is such a great color and the composition is good too

Neat! This is too cool. I'd love to see a sharper focus on the face, though.

Good editing & unique colour. Like to know if this is easy to do. It's only opinion but I prefer eye colour more natural. - 8

Cool image. Great coloring.

interesting...maybe in red?

WOW!!!!! Absolutely.... I am utterly speechless! This is so unusual. I have never seen someone do this kind of selective desaturating. Leaving just the hair colored, and the face desaturated.
Very beautiful, EXTREMELY unique! My only comlpaint is that it's a little grainy... but I love the blur on the hair, the high contrast, and the black background. This is way too cool. :)

Interesting effect. I'm curious what that uncoloured "hook" is in the top-rightmost wisp of hair. The blurriness in the bottom-right is a bit distracting from the overall effect.

Lovely portrait. I think I might have preferred it with B&W eyes as well but I will bet that for every person who says that you will get one who says they are glad you left the eyes coloured

Great capture though

Love the simplicity of this photo and yet it still stands out. Love the idea and one of my favourites in this challenge.
