Black & White and Red all Over
A random shot taken in Bath. The black & white with the contrasting red flowers made it a lot more dramatic than the original.

Thanks for your comment. I use a Canon S70 although that may have to change as it's acting a bit funny!

Hi, loved this picture, did you use a digital camera? I have a cannon A620 I know I can do this kind of pictures with it but I dont know how and I´ve lost the mannual :(
Chor Ip (65 months ago | reply)
Hey Vivi, Thank you for your comment. I did quite a bit of post-processing on photoshop with cropping and decreasing saturation to get the black and white parts of the picture. Since you have a canon I tend to use the 'P' Setting as it gives me lots of flexibility to what settings I can use! Feel free to email if you want some more help!

can teach me how to do it using ps?
do all camera have function like this??
tyty :)

Hi Aries,
The only way I know of doing this is to use the tool in PS to desaturate all the areas in the picture that you want to be in B&W. It can take a long time to do! I can only recommend you to just play around with PS to get the results you want.
As for the camera, I've had to convert my colour image into B&W and also crop the picture to the desired size. Unfortunately there was no quick ways for me to do it!
