I have the color version that I would love to learn how to keep the sky black and white and the flag stays in color.....

DoctorIt

there are a number of ways to do this...

My favorite is to make a new layer which is a copy of the image and do all your b/w conversion on this layer (many methods for this as well). Then mask off this layer and brush away where the flag is. Since most of it is in white clouds, you shouldn't have to worry too much about keeping "in the lines".

If you're looking for more detailed steps, why don't you surf over to the How To section and read up on some advanced photoshop techniques.
