I got this idea from MaryB when she did some selective coloring to a picture. She got the idea from bronzebilly.

Cool stuff.

I gave it a try on a few pictures.

I couldn't ask for a more beautiful person to edit a photo of. WOW!

Beautiful. :) The coloring really works effectively in this. It's very subtle.

Right you are, the way she looks... Selective coloring works out very well in this one. Recently I downloaded a photoprocessing program (Gimp) but I have to ask an expert colleague to explain to me how several operations function, what layers and canals are and how to deal with them. Now I can also color selectively but not with sharp edges, there is always blur around. Your pic is perfect! Please give her my regards.

I think what's more effective and beautiful in this image is the angle and composition. The flat wooden table catches the eye and takes it to the beauty. Very effective and strong.

That is so cool, HRV! That bluish tinge looks awesome and I agree with Reza-that angle really works! Nice!
