haha, you tricked me ! I was expecting something else 😉 I quite like the second picture. I never understood how selective color works, but I love the result !! 🙂
Hi, if you are using Lightroom it’s easy.
Push Saturation of colors you don’t want to 0. Here all… except orange and yellow.
The original photo was taken in autumn. 🙂
The push to green (spring simulation) was done with the White Balance.
But there are a few other options in Photoshop using masks and a B&W Level as well.
Oh I see, thanks for the explanation 🙂
yes the backlight in the fist shot is beautiful, soft and dreamy. The selective colour device works here or the branch & leaves would be lost in the forest.
Thanks, Fraggy. Glad you like the selective colors. Hope everything is fine in the NE. Kind regards. Reinhold
yes, working hard and can’t wait for days off. 🙂
I like the feeling of soft morning light in the first. In the tree I like the gentleness of the branches as a kind hand. Thanks Reinhold. Greetings, Francis.
