Reply To: Selective Coloring vs. Kim Anderson's Photography

[nesgran]

I would say the main difference is how it is coloured. Most of the selective colour atrocities that are on the front page are done really sloppily with a blob of colour and the rest grey. Kim Anderson however selectively colours objects rather than blobs but also importantly like someone else said has less colour for the rest making sure the rest of the photo looks muted rather then grey. If used properly it is a little bit like bokeh, it makes your eyes drawn to a certain part of the photo but if used badly it’ll ruin the shot, just like bad bokeh
