if shot in RAW use photoshop's raw editor to desaturate all colors except red!. if shot in compressed (ie jpeg), click on the picture, open the layers panel, duplicate the image!. Then on the top most layer, you must use a section tool of some sort (cs3 has that really good one), select what you want, then click on the (it's in the layers window) button with a circle inside of a rectangle!. It will create a "mask"!. Then select the bottom most layer > convert it to black and white (not at a computer with PS right now, but u can figure it out)Www@QuestionHome@Com

what u do is go to photoshop open the photo create a new layer turn it to black and white!. then take the eraser and erase the part you want to have color!. what happens is u erase the black and white and under neath is the colorWww@QuestionHome@Com
