Have two questions after looking through some photographs.
I was wondering how do I create a photograph that is black and white, with a single color (or a group of color that is very similar). Ie a black and white photograph where only the red balloon is in color.
In Photoshop:
Create a second layer, convert it to monochrome.
Erase that layer where you want the colour layer below it to show through.
If you do it with layer masks it is easier to go back if you make a mistake.
Quote: Secondly, I being reading on finding the hyperfocal length, and failed to understand its usefulness and the how to find part.
It's an old school method of being able to shoot very quickly by bypassing the requirement to focus the lens.
Useful in street photography or very fast snapshooting. Somewhat less useful with fast AF cameras.
