Something nice about colour on b&w mate.
How do you do that your end? Twin layers saving b/g in b&w and f/g in colour ? or by masking then changing format ? Nice Shoppin' mate

Not sure how Worzel did that one but my preferred method is layer mask then de-saturate.

Cheers chaps.
 The way I did this one was: Fists process the raw and drop into Photoshop, get the the levels, contrast, brightness right in the original, then balance the shadows and highlights. Then make a copy. With the copy, using the Polygonal Lasso go round the edge of the car, expanded up so you can get in nice and tight. Once you have gone all round, select inverse, then select refine edge, feathering out just past the edge with a nice smooth contrast. I then hit the delete button, leaving you a mask layer of the car with a nice smoothed edge. You then select and convert the original copy to Black & White in Silver FX Pro. Choosing something nice and moody and contrasty. You then open up the car level over the top, select the eraser, nice and small with smooth edge, then erase gently round the edge of the car, to remove the feathered edge. Once that's done, flatten the image, make a final levels adjustment, dodge and burn as required and then add the vignette. Final flatten and job done. About half an hour to do it properly

 Freehand masked and saved the car. Converted image to Greyscale. Converted image back to RGB Colour Pasted blue car back into a b/w RGB image. Cloned colours and by hand mapped reflections in b/w road. About same time as you mate

Thanks mate  I often wonder if other people get that "thing" when looking at certain images. Boris Vallejo is my favorite artist and he once said "many look but only a few see" He was referring to an object one was drawing, but it may also mean when viewing the finished piece. Mrs my is as artist as a Norwegian tent. She will look at my pics from a completely different perspective than I do. She will pick colours for a room when decorating and it would be the most god awful room you have ever walked in. People would feel ill in them.

That comment " many look but few see" is so bloody spot on! Art in any format is only as good as the viewers or audiences Interpretation! I like to take something in once and then go back a little later to look and appreciate it for what it is! The second time of looking is when you "get" what's really going on!

I had a look and thought " awesome" I showed my wife (she's a professional photographer) and she said " that is proper amazing skill, he obviously understands how things work"
Thumbs up from the winner household!!!
