Excellent usage of the desaturation. The bush in the background have just a hint of green and I find it better then full desaturation. The gilded statue is wonderful. Your POV renders the dramatic dimension it holds. Perfect to me!
Best regards,
Pris.

PS: have you had a chance to try panning technique lately?
