Photo of the day (02/04/08)
Whenever I travel, I always come back with a few door pictures. I don't know what it is about doors that I find so fascinating. I would get into some metaphysical thing about spaces behind closed doors, but I will spare you.
This is a photo by tysonwilliams, taken in Buenos Aires. I like the kitschy yellow job on the door. I never know how these things are done. Do you first make the photo black & white, then color the door yellow? Or, do you start with a color photo and make everything--but for the door--black & white?

Thanks for featuring my photo today. This is a color photograph I took in La Boca area of Buenos Aires and madee everything - but for the yellow door - black & white using software.

my Canon SD1000 camera has a function to highlight only one color when you take the picture...i haven't played with it much but it will give you a similar effect up front.

I really love this photo! The old building makes a great black and white picture in itself, but that touch of yellow really adds to it. I haven't been able to do that - I don't have photoshop or any other good software to do it. I wish I could! This is really a favorite!!
