Selective Color?

I rarely use it, however I feel like it is subtle enough to work here.

Any other selective color haters here? C&C please.

I'm not a selective color hater. Sometimes it works out and sometimes it doesn't. My personal opinion is that in this case it does work. I also like how you left the color on the lettering that is the same color as the flower. Does she have blue eyes?

Art

I agree with Art...this is very nice.

How adorable is she....I like the coloring.........

I agree... I think its great!

I agree. This works nicely. My only real problem is the words on her sweater. It's a little bit distracting for me. Other than that, it's a great capture and editing.

i would have desaturated it just a little bit, but i still like it as is

I really did little else other than de-saturating a few colors (yellow, red, green). The lettering had the same coloring as the flower so it stayed.

Thanks for the nice words. I generally feel that selective coloring is contrived and distracting. When I look at this shot though, I still focus on her eyes.

She does have very pretty eyes but the sun was behind her right shoulder I think. The eyes really didn't stand out.

Thanks again.

I like the subtle selective coloring... just like what you have. It's not too overpowering. Great job!

I love selective color. Good job.

Definitely works here, its an adorable picture!
