Default First Crack at SC

I know alot of people think its kind of gimmicky, but after reading the tutorial, I decided that selective colorization would make a good technique to learn as my first experience with GIMP and post processing beyond a simple crop & brighten.



Here's the original:



EXIF:

Camera: Kodak C330 Zoom
Exposure: 0.036 sec (1/28)
Aperture: f/2.7
Focal Length: 5.6 mm
ISO Speed: 160
Exposure Bias: 0 EV
Flash: Off, Did not fire
