Black & White Photos with a Touch of Selective Color
Heads up!
One of the items that will be on the list for Photo Hunt #5~ December 2009 will be a B&W photo with just a touch of color in an isolated place on the photo, as seen in the photos below.

In order to do this, you must manipulate the photo in some way. Here is an excellent website that shows you how to do it with links to many tutorials and examples of beautiful photography using this technique. Never fear if you do not have fancy photo editing software, you can create this effect by using the focal b&w tool at picnik.com as well.
Have fun playing!

Thank you for that website! I want to participate and learn something new too! Yea!
That will be a neat category.
I’m always up for a black and white shot with just an itty bit of color.
I can’t wait to see the December list and I am just hoping the isn’t anything that involves real weather.
Ha! Wished I’d known about the tutorial website in October! It took me a while to figure out how to do it, but it was fun! Thanks for hosting the challenge. The December list definitely looks challenging! B.
I always wanted to do this. Until now, I still haven’t figured how to do it. Thanks for the info, I will definitely try it.
Black and white pictures with a touch of color makes the picture look very interesting and classic. I love the pictures. I’m always a fan of isolated colors.
