    Fantastic colour, can you shed a little light on how you worked on this image ?? I love your colour reproduction.

  • Cadence Gamache

    Cadence Gamache

    Absolutely Craig! I just reproduced the layer in Photoshop, and then desaturated the top layer and removed all the parts from it that I wanted to stay in color, so that the original (colorful) image on the bottom could be seen =) I think there are probably better ways to do selective color, but that’s the way I have always done it =) Thanks for asking and thanks for the compliment!

    Your work is really amazing. I’m studying the same course as you (graphic design/ photography) in Port Elizabeth South Africa. I’ve only started photoshop studies this year though, so i hope to learn some of these techniques soon, cos yr stuff is awesome! wow…

    Excellent image and Photoshop work. A well done selective coloring technique that draws the viewer into the image. Superb tonal range and contrast with tack sharp details. To me this is one of the best selective color images I’ve seen here, and it is an instant favorite for me.
