in the skip

On our walk yesterday, I was hoping for some red s/c street scenes, camera set ready.

I found none but saw this rubbish skip on a front lawn, noticed the red can somebody had thrown in.

I thought the camera coped pretty well.
Interesting subject for selective colouring Hazel but does it have to be red something that stands out against the black and white tones would do for me:)

Interesting subject. I now have a picture in my head of you scrabbling around in a skip. :)

I think this camera does blue, green & yellow too. Another camera also does purple and orange. You have to set the colour you want.

No scrabbling! And I also hate scrabble - with a passion! (Had to play it in hospital. Grrr....)'

Peter, I had this facility on my Fuji X20. That was the one which could do purple and orange as well as the primary colours. You'll probably find it works better in some situations than others. I thought the way the camera had picked up the tiny bits of red etc on the can was good - could you do anything so detailed on Photoshop I wonder? (Call me a lazy photographer!!)

I've not seen too many bins with purple rubbish in them - might have to provide my own refuse!

Any purple selective colouring would be good. Must get hands on his camera and play!!!!

@quietpurplehaze I believe its possible with a little patience Hazel but so much easier in the camera, and possibly a much better job, going to give it a try tomorrow:)
