Selective Coloring in Photoshop

Selective Coloring With Photoshop
Learn how to create selective coloring in Photoshop. Today, I will explain how to give a color to focus on a specific object and leave black and white on the other object or commonly referred to as selective coloring. The trick is easy enough to just make adjustments Black & White and then removing an area that we want to show the color using the Eraser Tool.

Steps to make a selective coloring in Photoshop:

1. Open image
Select menu File> Open, click on your photo and then click the Open button. For this Photoshop tutorial, I'll use this image, flower-814852, that I downloaded from Pixabay. 

2. Add Black And White adjustment
Choose Layer> New Adjustment Layer> Black & White to create black & white adjustment.

3. Adjust the Black & White
If you do not see the Properties window, double-click on the Black & White adjustment to display it. I will choose Preset Maximum Black to obtain a darker picture. Please select your own preset that you want.

4. Remove unwanted parts using the Eraser tool
Make sure that Black & White adjustment layer is highlighted. Click the Eraser Tool icon then Zoom your photos by pressing the keyboard keys Ctrl ++. 

Set the brush size by pressing the open bracket key ([) to minimize and close bracket (]) to enlarge. Brush Eraser Tool to erase black and white color.

There you have it! Selective coloring photoshop tutorial.
