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

[Lauryn]

Selective colouring, when used right, could work well. However…
It honestly just looks sloppy most of the time, like those atrocious book covers from the 90’s. 99% of the selective colouring I see would be better as just black and white, or, if you really love the colour, coloured.
I do agree that there is a very, very small percentage of pictures that actually look good with selective colouring, though.

(Also, the first like with 4 pictures- the one on the top right makes the boy look sickly, and could’ve been coloured much more effectively.)
