Selective Color – Possibly The Best Tool For Photographers

Selective Color – Possibly The Best Tool For Photographers: Much to my dismay, I’ve recently discovered that many photographers are unaware of the power of selective coloring. With its versatility, I’m convinced it’s one of the most powerful tools for photographers today. It sounds insane, but I’ve used selective coloring for the majority of my photos over the last few years, and have left largely everyone impressed with my techniques. And no, I’m not trolling you.

Before you scoff this post off, let me explain. I’m not talking about making flowers red while the remainder of the photo is in black and white. I’m not talking about making that babies blue eyes pop in an otherwise dull grey background. I’m talking about the powerful tool found in Adobe Photoshop that allows you to work within a color histogram, in a non complex manner.
