Selective Coloring

shniks

Hey guys,


What do you all think of selective coloring? I tried this today and quite like it... Of course, one can't go overboard with it.... Thoughts?






UPDATE: I have changed the file to B&W. I have to agree with other's comments that selective coloring takes away from the photo... Thanks all for sharing your thoughts...

Cheers,

Thoughts?....

I "think" (for what that is worth) that selective coloring rarely works well in portrature. More often than not, it draws attention away from the subject. Just my opinion though....everybody has one.

That's a good point... it does draw attention away from the subject... good observation...

In this case I don't think it's necessary and now I want to see the full color.

Unfortunately I don't have this file in color- just in selective. I have gone ahead and just converted it to BW as I think what the others said makes sense viz. selective coloring for portraits...

Now that works.
