Preview In this tutorial, I'll show you how to transform a color photograph into black & white with color, using a fast and easy process. This effect is simple to do and will give your finished photos an elegant appeal. You can accomplish the simple effect using any version of Adobe Photoshop.

This effect can also be acomplished with the free/open source "GIMPShop" program. A modification of the GNU Image Manipulation Program (GIMP), intended to replicate the feel of Adobe Photoshop. Its primary purpose is to make users of Photoshop feel comfortable using GIMP.

photo retouching's Gravatar Nice result!.I use a completely different method of photo retouching to achieve the same effect. That is the beauty of photoshop. Can I just say that your video playback is far better than most I have seen on the web!

Momma's Gravatar Is there a name for this process? Also is there any other program you can use to accomplish the same effect? I can't afford Photoshop but LOVE this effect for my childrens pictures and such. Thanks so much!

C. Jason Wilson's Gravatar Momma, A good alternative to photoshop is a opensource program called GIMP. It is almost just as powerfull as photoshop and very similar in layout. Visit http://www.gimpshop.com/ to download (GIMPShop) a modification of the free/open source GNU Image Manipulation Program (GIMP), intended to replicate the feel of Adobe Photoshop. Its primary purpose is to make users of Photoshop feel comfortable using GIMP.

C. Jason Wilson's Gravatar Momma, I forgot to provide an answer to your first question about a name for this process. I can't say for sure that there is an official name for it but
I suppose one could call the process, "color isolation" since that is basically what your trying to achieve. I should probably update the video title to reflect that term.

Thanks for visiting and the feedback on my tutorials. I've been to busy lately to post a new one but hope to in the near future.
