Perfect Chance for a 3Fer

1/16/11 - Week 3
The 3Fer referred to in the title is being able to use the same shot for three submissions.
1) Project52: "Selective Color"
2) Daily Shoot #427: "Today's theme is blue. Make a photograph dominated by the color or that otherwise illustrates the theme."
3) MacroMondays: Theme - "Broken".  Broken toothpicks, count, right?

Shot for this week's theme of  "Selective Color" for my Project52. For a non-selective color shot of a similar subject, see http://www.flickr.com/photos/jeffm211/5358611426/

Week 3 ☞ 01.15.11 - 01.21.11

Theme:  Selective Color

I always shoot in color, but sometimes an image is more effective in black & white.  Black & White conversion will be a future theme, however this week is going to be a combination of color and black & white.  Selective color is used to emphasize a part of an image, while the rest of the image is desaturated.  Typically I have thought about selective color after the fact.  This week's theme will help me to think about it when taking the photo.  An example of a selective color photo can be found here:  http://www.flickr.com/photos/jeffm211/5355737504/

Since I may take shots outside of the weekly theme, if you are interested in checking those out, please see my Flickr Photostream at http://www.flickr.com/photos/jeffm211/
