Description
This is the grave of my great-great grandfather Decatur Revels, he was one of the first photographers in Florida. This is also my first attempt at selective coloring. I ran it by Piet "Busi2ness" and he helped me with the frame. So a big thank you goes out to him! Thank you for your much appreciated comments!
Have a great day!

Very good. the selective coloring works wonders. And the framing is great - Piet is very knowledgeable about those things. :-) Excellent photo.

Perfect use of selective colouring - is that a poppy? If so it serves as a perfect symbol of remembrance. A lovely POV and a special well done to Piet too - the frame finishes off this wonderful capture brilliantly. xx

I think it is an excellent way of honoring your grand dad, he would have been very proud of you. The selective coloring bring an excellent mood and the bright red makes a great contribution to the overall composition, well done!
