Indulge me, if you will

Yes, another Cousteau on the beach shot.

I usually find that playing with Photoshop is a more is less kind of a thing. The more I play, the less I like the shot. I really liked this shot because of the light on Cousteau's back. I guess the reason I fiddled with this one was that he is such an amazing colour.

So here you have the plain black and white and there you have the black and white and colour. I know which one I prefer but would welcome opinions. As well as how to do the selective colour thing without getting the weird halo effect.

Alcohol was consumed last night and today has been quiet and laid back. Reading, walking, drinking coffee, listening to French music. That sort of thing.

Edit: I can't promise I won't change to the B&W one before too long - I am just so fickle.

Edit again: there, I've gone and done it, I knew I would!
