B&W's, Chocolates, and Selective coloring

[CJWilkes]

I have found a love for the black and whites, Chocolates, and Selective colorings. Here are just a few of my favorite. Feel free to comment or cc and feel free to share your favorites as well. I love seeing EVERYONES work!!!

Selective color


Chocolate



Even lighter Chocolate:


I think that BW can create a certain moodiness and can also draw your eye to what you want it to be focusing on. It is a great feature to learn and implement.

Ok... Share yours!!!

hi cj
As you may well know i do a lot of conversions and straight b/ws, i just had to check these out and i love em!! I make mine very dark and contrasty but these have given me a few ideas to maybe do the opposite of that-I need to lighten up lol!!. Selective colouring is great to do and it works so well with your first shot. My favourite is the last
thanks for posting these i enjoyed them
