I like the selective desaturation here. Only complaint I have is it feels a bit sterile..maybe a little bit of grain/noise, or dropping the brightness slightly would help.

Great use of desat. I can almost see the elder men, sitting on those benches, turning tales of days gone by. Great job! :o)

I am not American, but can appreciate the patriotic beauty you are representing..selective dasat. works to support this. The store itself doesn't quite hold my eye..I like it, but find the cropping at the top loses the widows and perhaps the balance of the building. The right side is weakened by the sky..but I understand your choice here. Overall a decent shot, that doesn't fit my idea of beauty, but I appreciate your shot and will score accordingly.

This does look beautiful. Makes you think of simpler, more homey times. I like the desaturation effect with the flags in color.
