Color+black and white

[Leam09]

Hi,

I was wondering if there was a way to transfrom the image into black and white and then using a tool (like the brush) to make other objects in color. Using just the brush to bring down saturation would mean I wouldn't have access to the black and white tools.

Thank you.

You can apply a -100% Linear Gradient to the entire image (i.e. start the gradient near bottom or near top of photo then nudge to edge of photo). Next use the gradient eraser brush to bring back the colour in selected areas.

But that way I can't access all the black and white tools in the B&W panel right?

Thanks for your answer!
