Good composition, but the blue seats are really distracting. Try either toning down the saturation on the blues or making the photograph black and white.

This is really good. I like it in colour. Either do the saturation change as suggested or maybe even crop a little from the chairs? Risky though as I like the composition as it is.

Well done though.

good shot, but it has too much DOF and lacks shadow detail in his black suit. toning down the blue seats and getting detail back into his suit would be nice, and I see you're not afraid of some photoshocking

I would like to register a vote for leaving the blue chairs as is.

Thank you.

Tonight's topic: Is partial desaturation automaticly free ticket to instant fail?

Still looks good.

Would only be instafail if you desaturated all but Mayor Jyväskylä lips or something like that.

... although now I'm curious to see a DeviantArt'd up version of this.

Better, but I think it could use a levels adjustment or something. The Mayor's face lost something along the way.

Wouldn't it be hilarious if /p/ made Finnish news?

"In other news, a group of Photoshop machines produced an image showing off the Mayor of Jyväskylä's lips..."

Fixed. Also, the article should mention secret forums for photographers on steroids.

Needs moar selective desaturation.

I like it, but the chairs in front of him are really distracting. Aside from that, I like it a lot.

You know what this actually needs.
