i've recently been looking around flickr and have been seeing alot of selective colouring images. after trying several tutorials ive found a way to do it myself, by using the magic wand tool in macromedia fireworks to select the colours i wanted to keep, (or the area of colours)
ive then cut this and re pasted it as a separate layer and then changed the first layer to grayscale.
doing so allows you to create striking images such as this one where the blue of the eye is the focus of the picture where as in the original image it does not gain as much attention.
Ive also been advised by Crick3 of TBG to try adjusting the contrast levels on the black and white portion of the image to improve my images which will be the next thing i try and do when i get some more images to try this technique on
Welcome
Welcome to my photo blog, i opened this because i was wound up with not being able to explain what the photos were, where they were taken, why they were taken, how they were taken etc on flickr efficiently in a blog type format
