Title: Selective Colour / Colour Pop CHAT thread 4-10th Nov 2109

 Selective Colour / Colour Pop  CHAT thread

Saw another social media post where a keen newbie got slated for use of selective colour being told it was passe. I don`t use it too much and remember getting a imilar slating when I used it on request for a wedding shoot I did of the bouquet. No problem for me but I think it needs to add to the image rather than be done for the sake of it. So your task is to do one for me this week that shows effective use whether done in camera ( as it can be now) or through processing. If you`ve not done one there are loads of guides out there that will come up with a google search.

Pictures to be taken between now and Sunday 10th November 2019

Struggled a bit with this topic, what with the weather having been so awful and not be able to make it to the local war memorial this morning to get some shots with lots of red in. so I've 'popped' one from earlier this year.

Took a couple today in Roundhay park and my garden in a lull between rain showers. Decided on the acer being cleaner and simpler

Wet and overcast here as well, but found a little deep colour caught up in the drizzle and gloom.
