Playing around with two things here, street photography and selective color. It was a rainy day in Venice and this woman with her trolly bag caught my attention. A conversion to B/W with a touch of selective yielded this end result. I'm curious what you think. As always, thank you for looking and leaving a comment. (P.S. - Venice in the rain is truly wonderful for a photographer.)

I like the selective color in this one very much Doug - I think B&W photography works well in the rain but the red really pops in this. So you get the best of both. This would be good for the BWC.

It's a very interesting shot, and a handful of people as well.The exposure is bang on though it can be more dramatic if darkened somewhat. Just a matter of choice.

Well done Doug. The depth of the street and the selective coloring makes this a wonderful image.

Gosh, you really know how to create a visual delight. The color, textures, and especially composition bring this to another level. Bravo!

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

A perfectly done scene of a romabtic lane at Venice. The red
trolly bag is a real eye catcher and contrasts wonderfully
with the B/W.
