mrs.cos Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 I have always loved selective color/bw pcitures. I konw they can be considered an out of date photoshop technique, but sometimes i think its powerful. My best friend runs a volunteer Community garden at her house. She donated 1400lbs of food last year to local familys in need in the Portland area. Her 3 children (#4 on the way) work in the garden on a daily basis. They have chickens and ducks and know of no other way of life. She sent us pics last week (as she does frequently) and i saw this one and just thought it had potential. She is 6 years old and the picture felt so solemn and proud to me. I wanted to rid the distractions of the rest of te world behind her. *big girl panties on* Critique away. http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5079/5866691997_0e1bae395d_b.jpg Beatrix with Radishes by Lucky Lola Studios, on Flickr http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5074/5866691953_94d4540214_o.jpg Beatrix with the radishes by Lucky Lola Studios, on Flickr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractor Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 As with all editing I use it when I find an image that it will enhance. I will it to any image the client wants it on though. It looks neat in your edit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrs.cos Posted June 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Yah I felt a bit iffy on it.. But if I remove it it looks kinda dead off to the side. Plus the fact that it crosses her body makes it awkward as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTQ B4U Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Haven't done much with selective processing myself. In this pic, I'd correct the perspective and perhaps adjust the DOF a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
