Convert photo to black and white excpet for reds

I have a photo and I would like to convert it to black and white except for the reds in the image. Is there a way of selecting a color range to be preserved and to convert the rest to black and white?
thanks

The problem is that the reds arnt just in one area.
Is there no way to select a color range?
I guess I could use the magic wand tool and set it off continuous while varying the tolerance, but this seems a but crude.

    Nobody can tell you anything without proper system and version info or other technical details, including what you actually mean by "switch to black and white".

  • I hired a commercial artist to create a color image for the cover of a self published book. I want a black and white image for the inside. The commercial artist has not responded to this request. How do I determine the format of the color image, I'm guess

    I hired a commercial artist to create a color image for the cover of a self published book. I want a black and white image for the inside. The commercial artist has not responded to this request. How do I determine the format of the color image, I'm guessing it's Illustrator's formatting but I don't know. How can I find out if Illustrator will open the file and allow alterations? The image opens only in Apple's Pages software?

    rons,
    It seems that all you have is a raster image, presumable PNG24 or JPEG, in RGB.
    It may have been created as raster artwork in Photoshop, or it may have been created as vector artwork with the help of Illy, or as a mixture of vector and raster artwork in either application, or both combined.
    If you just need to have a raster representation in black and white based on the current colour image, you may try this, in a new RGB document (View>Smart Guides are your friends):
    1) File>Place the image (you may tick Link or untick and have it embedded);
    2) Create a rectangle with black fill (R = G = B = 0), at least as large as the image, and place it behind the image (you may ClickDrag with the Rectangle Tool between opposite corners, then Ctrl/Cmd+X+B);
    3) Select all and in the Transparnecy palette flyout click Make Opacity Mask with both Clip and Invert Mask ticked.

  • Lightroom changes color photos to black and white error

    When I import NEF files into LR, they initially display as Colour, then during the render process, LR changes them to black and white. It has never down this in the past, is there a reson why LR is doing this now? The photos are colour (as shown in Capture NX and Windows explorer), and during importing, I selected 'None' for the develop setting. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Thank You :-)
    Particulars: Lightroom 2, Files: NEF (Nikon D300),OS: Windows XP Pro

    Thanks Jao, much appreciated...I must of changed the develop setting...now that I recall, I did go into the Develop->Set Default Settings recently. The reset resolved the issue.
    Thank You...CK

  • Photoshop Black and White profile for printing

    I'm a black and white photographer, so this issue is extremely important for me to resolve. I've been looking online and I have yet to find the answer, so I hope someone can help.
    I need to know how to set up the black and White profiles in Photoshop for printing. The printer I have is a canon Pixma Pro 9000 a mark II
    I need true black and white. Thank you in advance for any help or suggestions. If you need me to provide additional information let me know.

    I frequently print black & white work on an Epson, using the Advanced black & white feature in the print driver.
    A quick internet search found that there is something similar for Canon -  Canon : PIXMA Manuals : Digital Photo Printing Guide : Black and White Printing
    I print scanned grayscale files, and have the grayscale profile in PS set to Gamma 2.2.
    If you are printing digital photos, they will be RGB, but that will probably not make any difference. But you have to read the documentation for the Canon to find out if it will. IOW - if the image should be Grayscale or RGB.
    One very important thing when printing like this is to set the printer to manage colors (not PS) in the PS Print dialog.

  • Black and White Preview for all images Quick and Easy can it be done?

    Before I switched to Mac, I used a google program to do my iphoto/aperture like editing called Picasa. Picasa allowed me to change my view to black and white so that all my images looked black and white until I changed my view back. This was GREAT for letting me look at a wedding or a group of images and quickly scan for the ones that looked spectacular in black and white as apposed to color.
    I have been desperately trying to find a setting in Aperture that will allow me to do that so that I can get a super quick preview of everything and mark the ones that I want to really spend time converting to black and white.
    Does anyone know how to do this? I would almost be willing to change my monitor settings to greyscale temporarily if that is even possible.

    What I do is this:
    In the View Menu set Proofing Profile to Gray Tone.
    Then anytime you want to see things in B&W, hit ShiftOptP
    (Pictures are only B&W in Viewer only mode--large or full screen. But you can use the arrow keys to move through a whole album)

  • How to make a photo half black and white with select colours

    Hey,
    Can anyone give me step by step instructions on how to make a photo black and white with abit of colour like the one attached... on CS4?
    Cheers

    Haven't seen you attached file as it takes a long time for attachments to load on this forum.  Try little camera icon instead.
    EASIEST way to have B&W in areas is to add Hue and Saturation adjustment layer.  Use sliders to make B&W.  Next paint on layer MASK, with black, to restore color in areas you want to show color.

  • IPhone 5s - Camera Photos in Black and White

    I have a new iPhone 5s and for some reason, when I click on Camera to take a photo, on the main photo it comes out as black and white rather than colour.  If I switch to Square I get colour, but on switching back to ordinary photo, it goes back to black and white again.
    Anybody have any ideas about this?  I also have an iPhone 6 and checked on this, but when I open the Camera app I get colour too.
    Both phones are running the latest version - iOS 8.1.2.
    Thanks

    Your black and white filter is probably on. When taking a picture, in the bottom right, there are three circles overlapping. Click on that and chose "none".

  • How best to print a color photo in black and white

    I use the Black and White adjustment on a series of colour photo's I've taken.  However when I go to print the photo's, colour still comes out in the print.  Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

    It might be a problem with your printer's color profile. Did you try to set the color profile in the print dialogue to "black and white" (choose: "more options" in the print panel) ?

  • Can you suggest a good black and white printer for OS 9?

    I'm going to be using OS 9 for a while and was wondering if anyone could suggest a good black and white printer that I can connect to my Lombard laptop running OS 9. New or used doesn't matter to me as long as I can still get some ink cartridges for it. Thanks a ton for the help.

    Okidata printers are the only ones I know of that are current models that have Mac OS 9 drivers.
    http://www.okidata.com/mkt/html/nf/b2200-b2400home.html
    And I think these are laser printers, not inkjets. I don't have personal experience with them.
    For older models that you may find used, HP made good printers. For their inkjet printers, HP put the printhead on the ink cartridge, which ensure that key part will not wear out or get clogged on a older printer.
    Make sure the model is not too old; you need USB. To check on a specific model, go to hp's support site. Look up the model by it's name or number on this web page.
    http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/support.html?pageDisplay=support
    From the next page, you can see the specs and open a page with a listing of printer drivers. If there is a driver for Mac OS 9, that model would work.
    You can do the same type of evaluation with other brands, such as Epson, Canon, etc.

  • Dear all,suddenly my readerstarted to blink black and white pages for 2 hours. Hints to stop it?

    I was reading the book. Suddenly the screen went black. After I tried all the buttons it started to blink black and white screed and it is doing it already for a couple of hours.
    No reaction from any button.
    Any hints how to stop it? Is it out of order forever?
    Type Sony eReader PRS-T1.
    Thank you in advance for any support.

    Don’t forget to recharge ebook reader device after.
    The issue is due to:
    -low battery
    -and/or a problem with the ebook’s file (not perfectly compatible)
    -and/or many “orders” (tap on screen, press buttons and probably low battery) while reader prepares a new page.
    Nothing serious!!!
