Hi. I wondered of anyone could help. I have watched a few clips of how to turn a black and white photo into a colour one but not sure how to add just a splash of colour. I need this photo I have uploaded to be black and white but want the flowers to be the colour they are. The middle bouquet to be a lemon colour to match the flowers as it currently white. Thank you for your help

If you have Photoshop: Duplicate the layer, convert in B/W. Then delete with the rubber whatever you want in Color.

To colour the Bouquet, select the Bouquet and fill in colour.

Do I understand you correctly that you need 1 B/W with the flowers in colour and 1 photo in Colour with the middle Bouquet in yellow?
Are we allowed to edit your photo?

You have a cross for editing so of you want me to remove it, no problem.

Well ok, if you want this to be removed, just tell.
Done quickly, could be more accurate.

Ive just put a quick tutorial together as a beginners guide to achieving this effect. Provided it gets the green light from those with the jaffa cakes it'll be in the Tutorial section HERE

The only thing I would change is to not use the rubber to erase the layer you don't want but to add a layer mask to the black and white layer then use the brush tool, with the default colours of black and white and erase that way.

The black brush colour will erase and the white colour lets you put it back in again.

That's how I would do it.... Hopefully my tutorial will be approved soon so you can see it step by step
