I wanna see some selective color images. Done well I think they look awesome. (Ok, well not just selective color, but any of the ones where it's mostly b&w with some color in it.)
Here are a couple of mine.

I don't do these. If a client asks, I tell them I don't know how to.

Well, like in the case of the couple, putting only the reflection in the mirror in color really saved the image. In full color, you concentrate on their backs, and it is really distracting. But by putting the color only in the mirror, it draws your eyes to the mirror.
In full color, that was a throw away image. Like it is now, it sold. And isn't that the whole point anyway?

I did this one a few years ago when I first started. It's funny because my husband is a Sooner and my sister is a Husker. She used to bribe my kids with Husker shirts all the time. Notice my son with the Husker shirt and Sooner hat!!
