[njw]

I've been wanting to do some more with PS and finally find myself with a couple of hours to do some playing. Posting a couple of results for your C&C.



Thank you for your time.

I like this concept, cropping and all, just would love to see a bit more of the lips since that seems to be the emphasis in the photo. Thanks for sharing and being a part of the SC community and family, rg sends!

I really like the B&W photo...the lip color doesn't work for me. They look like they were painted rather than having the original color photo overlaid with the B&W and then erasing to reveal the lips.

But an excellent photo none the less.

Thanks!

Actually The Whole Consept Of Selective Color Is to Produce A Sureal Art form
That Is Balanced in A Way That It Really Gets Your Attention.

Lets Face it We All Know That pepole Are Not Available In Black And White With Just There Lips And Eves Colored.If We Are Walking Around In A Gallery And Sudenly We see Something Different,It Really Gets Our Attention.Which By The Way is the FIRST Part of Any Sales Process.IF I DONT HAVE YOUR ATTENTION I CANT SELL YOU ANYTHING.As I Was Browsing In My JC PENNEY Jewery Department I Saw About 5 Point Of Purchese Displays Done In Selective Color.Only the Jewery Was In Color,And The Models Eyes.It Really Got My Attention.

So if you are Planning A One Man Show Add A few Selective Color Images And Watch What Happens.The Three That I Will Have In My album by The End of Next Week.Under Lisa's Body Shots Have Produced Gross Sales of $2600.00.
I'm Sure That The Ones That ANDY WARHOL Did Have Grossed In the Millions Or More!
