Selective colour is a technique frequently used in order to draw the focus of a photo to one particular point. For example in the photo to the left Ahmed Eslaid has made the entire photo black and white except for the flower which he wants to be the focus of the photo. This can be a very powerful technique as it can change the atmosphere of a photo completely. 
For my attempt at selective colour I have decided to focus on animals as they often display bright colours that can contrast their surrounding. For these two photos in particular I made the both black and white before erasing the areas where I felt that colour would have the most effect. I have also altered the levels and increased the vibrancy to make them stand out even more.
