The photo was real yellow from the flourcent lights and the slow shutter speed.

I really wonder why you chose to do the partial desaturation here. IMO you've ruined your picture...

Good idea and a nice job of meeting the challenge, but I don't think the selective desat works here, at least in the manner in which you've applied it. 6

The selective desat is not working in this hsot for me.

The selective desat doesn't really do anything useful for the image

The selective desaturation really hurts this shot.

different use of selective desaturation and is that Bobby from the Sopranos?

I'm sure this was very interesting, seeing the whole flight simulator thing. The image as a contest entry, however, is not up to par. It gives off more of a snapshot feel, than a contest entry.

wierd desat

Selective desaturation in this photograph is mostly random and pointless. Many of the parts remaining in color are oversaturated and very distracting. If this image were completely in color, I'd give it a seven. If it were completely in black and white, I'd give it a six. I'm going to have to give it a four because it's just very messy.

Your use of selective desat creates interest, although the red is a bit too saturated.

not digging the selective desat. Great photo of a simulator, but the coloring kills it for me. I would have given it a 7, but the colors bring be down to a 5.

Sweet, is it my turn yet????
