Very nice post processing.
Because of the pose of the girl, the composition works all right here too.

Very interesting composition. How did you go about differentiating the colors from the black and white elements?

I like this shot. Great contrast with the scattered flowers. I would have cropped some to offset the main subject, but otherwise an excellent photo.

TFS,
David

Beautiful shot! I agree with KellEy that the central placement of your subject works well, mostly I think because of the surroundings.
Great work with the selective saturation, very impressive shot

Great shot. Very moody I think. I'm not to fund of desaturating parts of a photo as I think it often makes those parts look less important. I guess that is why you would desaturate. To bring out what is important. Anyways, great shot! Cheers, Jens

Hi Khalil ,
Its a terrific shot. U have broken the rule by placing the girl at the middle and actually that gives a huge impact in it.
Regards.

Great shot nad relly beautiful colors.

I like walking little kid in the poppies field.

Great mood and fantstic coposition.Regards

hello khalil
greetings from India

this a nice picture but fails to follow the rules of thirds. the girl is in center, your subject must be off center for a great picture.

regards

Well done:)

Really really beautiful. One of the best uses of selective coloring that I've seen. Excellent!

Excellente idée de désaturation partielle, le résultat est magnifique !

Just lovely !!!
