I've seen photographers that can take a photo, make it black and white, and then take an item and make that part colored while the rest of the photo stays black and white. (example: black and white photo of a person with only their eyes colored.) I have some photos that I have taken with my digital camera that I think would look really great if I could do this. Does anyone know of what kindof software I could get to do this with my photos. I have Adobe photoshop and I thought that I might be able to do it with that, but I can't find a way on there to do it. Any help/advice that anyone could give me would be most appreciated!! Thanks in advance!

With Photoshop (generic instructions)

1. Open Image
2. Duplicate Background Layer
3. Select Layer 1
4. Desaturate Layer 1
5. Adjust Levels on Layer 1 (CTRL + L) for a nice B&W color
6. Select soft brush for eraser tool
7. Carefully erase the parts of Layer 1 that you want the background layer to show through.

To Add color selection to a B&W image
1. Open Image
2. Create New Layer
3. Set Layer Style to Color
4. Select a soft brush on Paintbrush Tool
5. Choose color you would like
6. Carefully paint over the area you would like.
**Also try setting the layer style to Hue / Saturation for another effect**

Once you are done with either process, flatten the image then choose save as so you dont' over write original file

You asked for the best, well, Adobe PhotoShop is the best, and it's pricey, also you will need some tutoring. I suggest you try Adobe Elements 2. It edits a photo quite effectively and the price is not too bad. There are plenty of free ones out there but not anywhere near the quality of PhotoShop.
