This photo is part of a much bigger set I took at Walker Stalker Con 2016 in London Olympia. See the full set here: pigpog.com/2016/03/19/walker-stalker-con-2016-london/
This one isn't the best shot, but it's the one that took the most time to process. I wanted the attention on the red-haired guy on the right, and the woman looking at him. Monochrome removed the distraction of bright colours on other people, but lost the colour of his hair.
I used a selective colour technique, but only partially, so the colour is a bit faded elsewhere. I also used the same mask to add detail to his hair, and add a sunshine glow effect to her face. I think I got the balance about right - it draws attention to them, without looking like selective colour. All done in On1 Effects.
