Photo Editing

I never considered myself much of a photo editor. Sometimes I'd use the GIMP to touch up a photo or make it grayscale or whatever. But recently I've been trying something cool. You know how Sin City (the movie or the comic) is in black and white? Certain things are left in color and they really stand out. They give the scene a cool vibe. I thought it would be cool to do that with some photos. So I learned how to add color to black and white pictures.

I severely doubt I did it the best, or most efficient way possible. I sort of just made a colored mask and upped the transparency until it looked right. Anyways, here are some of the pictures I've done:












I'm not expert, but I like the new look it gives the pictures.
