Mm, not sure about this one Clarky. The centre of the flower seems very dark with little or no detail in it. I am never sure about selective colouring in b/w photos. I'don't feel it adds anything in this case.
Kal 10d PS is Photoshop, which is what Clarky used to get the effect.

It's always good to play Clarky, and as long as you are happy with it.
Maybe you could post the full colour version for me? Pretty please?

Now that I like! Thankyou.
The contrast between the yellow and the green is lovely. Maybe if you were to keep the flower at it's full glorious yellow in your B/W version it would work better.
Did you spray it to get the water drops or is it still raining there?

Thanks Gwyn. The rain had stopped but the forecast is for more this week and we had a bit this afternoon. But i'm not complaining, with all the rain we have had over the past 4 weeks our dam is still only at 60% but thats still better than the 25% it was at.

Very nice Clarky. The idea works for me nicely done - but the original got superb colors...

I love the full colour version. I hope you don't mind me saying but the whole concept of the B&W with a bit of colour has always left me cold. To me it says "I can do this so I will do this". Unless you are making some sort of point like in an advert I prefer it straight. Yes I know we all process our pictures a bit from time to time but I hope you know what I mean.

I would appreciate honest critique over someone saying they like something when they don't Thanks all for the comments.

I do agree with the veteran. There is something very artificial about pictures where just one element is in colour. Also, it's rather passè.
Still, there's no harm in experimenting. And the full-colour version is lovely.
