I use PSP 9, I presume it is the same in X2.
Select New Adjustment Layer. Choose Colour balance ( I think ) and then check Monochrome.
That will create a Mono layer over the top of your image.
Switch to the new layer.
Then use the paint brush to "paint out" the layer over the leaf you want to colour. This effectively erases the layer in that area to reveal the colour below.

Not been on here much recently. Just can't seem to get any ideas with my camera, or time to do anything.
The worse thing is, the longer I go without picking the camera up, the less inclined I seem to be to try and make time.
So, I've decided. By the end of April I'm going to get a shot which makes you say wow!.
No idea what or where, but that is my aim.
And I expect you guys to beat me into submission if I don't

It's bad enough getting shot down most of the time on here and now I'm having to take insults from a man who lists what sort of rucksack he has.
I'm simply trying to make the transition from film to digital.
If they did a digital version of the ME Super with just ISO 125 and 400 like the HP films and aperture exposure all would be fine for me.
But now I am faced with hyper program this and hyper transfer that and ISO 68 million and flash modes for this and that and mysterious green buttons.
Hence my decision to stick with PENTAX and join this forum so I could use my old lenses and learn some new skills but now everybody has super duper limited £800 quid jobs and £1000 quid cameras (not just one either, some folk have 3 or 4 listed) so I'm finding myself up against it again with old and budget gear.
That said I am determined to carry on until I get better!
OK, taking that this is serious, Try setting your camera to ISO 200 and putting it into Aperture Priority mode, then using it as you would your MESuper. The only difference then would be the focus confirmation. The MESuper has a split screen and your DSLR has an indicator light.It's bad enough getting shot down most of the time on here and now I'm having to take insults from a man who lists what sort of rucksack he has.

Again, if you are serious, take on board the negative criticism and you can learn a lot...I did.
Oh, and for what it's worth..I have a £130 second hand istDL, with kit lens a second hand 70-300mm Tamron second hand 50mm manual lens and an ebay special £10 62- 200 mm Prinzflex. Very much the bottom end of budget kit

I really like number 2. Feels like I'm falling into the image.

I recently bought one of these
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Pro-DSLR-SLR-DC-Leather-Camera-Hand-Grip-Strap-Sony-/35034...
It fits my *IstDL well eough and the wrist part ensures the camera can't fall out of my hand.

My OPtio ( very old) has a focus problem, but does focus well in Macro mode or manual focus.

I'm jealous I couldn't attend.
Didn't this lady have red eyes last time we saw her?

Father Ted and Cliff, thanks for the help. I tried both methods, but got stuck on the 'check Monochrome' bit in Ted's tips. (There was no option to select Monochrome). Cliff's method worked a treat (see gallery).
