I cant believe this only got 3 comments!! This is absolutely gorgeous! I think that even without the title this picture tells a story. Not too often you just put roses on the ground...!

I like the details of the cracks in the sidewalk, especially the curve at the top... because that curve seems to indicate that the line of roses goes on and on beyond the confines of the photograph.

I like the tall, skinny crop too. This would look nice in a frame.

I like the idea and the selective desat works very well. However, I think the DOF is much too shallow or in the wrong place. The OOF roses in the foreground are very distracting and I think increasing the DOF or shifting it to include the foreground roses would work much better.

Great choice for selective desaturation. Without the title I wouldn't have known what the roses were for, but I do like the edit.
