Default Pop Went the Telephone Box.

Hi all, not a massive fan of selective colour to be honest, but this image was just crying out for it.

pop went the phone box

I know some have seen on my flickr already, but for the rest.

Thanks
Glyn

For some things it works, and in this case, I agree it does!

Great shot, Glyn. I, too, think selective coloring is used too often, "just because." I've been doing it a lot lately, but I've learned HOW to do it effectively...just as you have. Well done! TFS

Love it, and love the Telephone booth, I think it would look really nice in my game room! Think you could sneak out, under the cover of darkness, box it up and send it to Texas? I'll trade ya...say a nice big cactus? LOL
