Here is my 2nd Visual Assignment for the week.  Our assignment is to make a photo black and white and then have one color stand out; Splash The Color.  You can view my submission on Flickr.  I chose a picture that I took of my girlfriend at the park and decided that it would be cool to make the entire picture black and white and only have the color of the sky showing.

In the picture, you can see on Jackson’s shirt there is a little bit blue, but I’m happy that there isn’t much else that is blue except for the sky.  I actually used Photoshop Express Editor to do this and found it to be a better tool than Pixl which is the last website that I used for my photo editing.  What I like is that you can do all of this editing in the browser and not download any additional software.  It wasn’t hard at all to apply the affect either.  It’s one of the image editing choices and then you can actually change the color that you are having pop out as well.  I could have gone with green, pink, red, yellow, etc.  In essence, you can literally change the entire picture just by a little click of the mouse.

I hope that you guys like my picture and the effect that I went with!
