Gimp Tricks: Selective Colorization
Today, I’m going to teach you how to first simply create a black and white image from a color photo, then to selectively colorize any portion of the photo. I’m not going to directly adapt a Photoshop tutorial because this is a very simple process, but if you want to find the Photoshop way of doing this, simply google “selective colorization” and you’ll get about five gazillion results. For those of you keeping track, yes, this is the first Gimparoo original.
So, as I mentioned in the previous post, flickr’s CC license image search tool is totally awesome, and that’s where I found today’s image. In the spirit of the license, I’m attributing flickr user Daniel Montesinos as the original photographer. Thank you Daniel. I will also make my finished product available with the same license provisions on my flickr page.
