Fun with PhotoShop

Father's Kiss

Did you know there are over 6 different ways of creating a spot colored image? I've been experimenting with this technique because it is increasingly popular with brides. Most often it appears in images where just the flowers are shown in color and the rest of the image is in black and white, but I think that's almost too obvious. I like using it in situations where the subject of the image may blend into the scene, and the spot coloring helps to make the subject pop out of the image while making the rest of the scene fall into the background. I think it works well for this image of the father giving away his daughter with a kiss, shot through a crowd of wedding guests.
