This is my black and white with color shot. I captured the action of a basketball going through the hoop and I chose to emphasize it with the selective coloration technique. I applied a layer mask through the hue and saturation menu that desaturated the whole photo. Because the desaturation was applied with a mask, I was able to go back and paint in which areas I wanted to have colored. Using the magic wand to initially apply the mask I was able to already color much of the hop and intricate parts of the net. I then went back over everything and refined the edges because the magic wand had roughly selected them. I also painted in the excluded areas that the magic wand didn't grab. The final product is a frozen action shot that has an added element of drawing your attention immediately to the action because it is the only part of the composition with color.
