My tongue's the only muscle on my body that works harder than my heart.

Use the magic wand tool to select the pixels you want to isolate. You may have to change the "tolerance" settings a few times in order to make subtle selections.
Once you've got your pixels grouped together you can change the hue/saturation settings for your selection independently of the rest of the image.
You can also invert the selection under the "Select" menu, which is useful for working backward.
Basically I just isolated the magnolia and the ladybug, desaturated and applied a blur filter to the background, and changed some contrast/hue settings on the subject.
Oh, and after working on the colors I used the "Burn" tool on the Ladybug's outline to restore some of the detail lost in the manipulation.
haha....that is really cool man. look at the little ladybug!
looks like its crawling up an albino wang
Well, that's an interesting, yet alarmingly homoreotic interpretation...
