Nothing all that special about that shot. A lot of the yellows are blown and that caused detail to be lost. The selective coloring is a editing technique if that is what you were after. Do a search for selective coloring and you will get plenty of tutorials on how to do it.

Selective coloring... do it once to get it out of your system... and then get over it. RARELY is it ever a good thing. It just screams "Hello! I'm new to Photoshop!!!"



Beginners talk about cameras, Pros talk about lenses, and Masters talk about light.

It might seem overdone to us as photographers but it still carries kudos with a lot of non photographers. We, I think, see so many techniques used, that we sometimes become blasé about them without realising that they do have their place.

And the customer is always right (so long as he is paying good money, I can bend my artistic will to certain shots I wouldnt normally do - selective colour, HDR, tilts etc)

I happen to be a fan of selective coloring. Yes, I'm a n00b. :D
