Smile Selectively Coloured Vehicle in the rain!
Well The sky was cloudy and the conditions overcast and it started raining..i looked out of my window and saw this vehicle parked there...everything except the yellow of the vehicle looked very dull because of the overcast sky...so i thought i could try to bring out the yellow in PP and keep the rest of the picture in b&w to capture the feeling of the heavy rain.
IMG_0670

The Exposure was set at 1/100 and the aperture was f/5..ISO 400 because of the overcast conditions.

I don't know whether i've done justice to the composition but i like the way its turned out..suggestions would be very nice!

Oh and PP was in PS CS 4. just added a layer, desaturated it and used the history brush to repaint the yellow parts!

What a lovely image. I like this a lot. It is amazing how an image so nice can be made on what looks like an awful day. Love the composition, by the way. Very well done and thanks for sharing
