Texture Tuesday - Black and White with a touch of Color

Having to relearn Photoshop

so I googled the best way to 

turn your photo to Black and White.

I recognized PhotoFocus so I tried their link.

"Better Black and White Photos with Photoshop"

by Richard Harrington

Very nice tutorial with a video using the 

adjustments layer "Black and White"

Worth checking out and very good Black and White results.

Not flat.

After the conversion, 

I used Kim Klassens KK-1402 magic texture.

Awesome Texture!!!

I set it on Color Dodge in the Blending Modes

at 100%

Then I used a mask layer and painted in 

my flowers to add that 

Touch of Color :)

Here is the original I took with my Droid Razr.
