only desaturation with Photoshop CS

rene, i think i would like to see more of her face, and the coloring (which i tend to only like in very limited situations) is so strong that its a little jarring to me.

I agree with Ben, the color on black and white is overdone. A little bit of that goes a long way.

I think if the face was shown a little more (as already stated) and was in color, as for the flowers I would have had them in BW except for just the one in the middle which I would have colored. Just a thought...

For me, the flowers are too bright. Nice job controlling the light, though. I would clone out the little white spot of flower right above her lip.

I would like to see one without the green leaves, just the roses colored. I know thats alot more time consuming. I really like these shots when the bride holds the flowers about waist high in front of her body. I am a big selective coloring abuser myself so I can't fault you there.

Or maybe simply decreasing the saturation of the flowers would suffice.

I like this alot!! I think it might be neat to leave most of the flowers b&w and just color in the middle rose. Just an idea.... Great job!
