The clarity is really good. I like the color editing you did, I would have left the other green parts in color Nice job...

Here's how I did it.

1. Get a paintbrush....the best kind have fuzzy edges.
2. Use the color white
3. Set its blend mode to "hue"
4. Then paint with the brush in the areas you want to be b&w, the color will be erased.


I'm sure there's easier ways out there, but this is the method I found to be most effective.

hey many thanks.. i took those steps and played with the different tools a bit..I found putting the color to black and setting it to saturation made a deeper black and white feel... and got my latest piece.. i think it came out pretty good...

..thanks again for the pointers!

Excellent effect. I would have liked to see more in the background though.

It's the contrast that's striking.... The colors enhance their modesty through color withdrawn life forms....


nice work, nice concept...


Cheers..!

I have one question; when did you get so unbelievably fantastic at photography?
You've certainly evolved since I first started viewing your work, and you've done brilliantly on this piece.

Well, it gets me through school...gives me a sense of purpose, I suppose. Actually, I believe the fact that someone (Caleb) actually BOUGHT me a camera contributes to the evolution...it's hard to practice if you don't have an instrument. But thank you, I'm glad to see that I'm getting better. You're such a sweetheart.
