In Photoshop!.!.!. duplicate twice (never alter the original file, it degrades it gradually)!. Take one and remove all saturation (red, green and blue)!. Drag it over the other then use the eraser to remove the gray bringing forward the color of the image below it!.

Flatten the layers and presto!.!.!. you did it

There are a number of ways but I find this to be about the easiest!.

Photoshop!. It is the most remarkable program I've ever seen to fool with photographs!.

See if you can find a copy of Photoshop 7!.0!. It's older now and should be cheap!. I've had it for several years and still don't quite understand it all, but I probably can use 75% of it now!. It's great!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
