From a shoot today

I like the first one a lot . . . except for the selective color . . . I just don't think that the effect adds to the image.

I like the idea of desaturating, thanks, I'll try that.

 

Well, the first one is great... except the first thing I thought of was that it looked like she is using extremely fancy restroom facilities.  I don't mean to make fun of the photo/pose/model, it's just what I thought of.  I wish she were sitting more on the edge, but that may have not been possible.
I am not a fan of selective coloring, but my clients always are... so I won't even comment since it's such a personal taste thing.

I like the second one a lot.  I don't mind her expression, she does look a little pissed, but in an editorial way, if that makes sense

Nice conversions though, btw.

Yeah, I've never been a selective color fan either.  Really like the shot though. 

Nuts . . . I hate it when someone points something and then that's all that I can see!

In the second image, her right foot is turned on it's side (the inner edge is lifted.  This is not a good look.  The foot should be turned to her right or, better yet, just the heel should be turned in towards the front.

I know that it is a little thing . . . but . . .
