I was trying to post this in my gallery, but kept getting a critical error message half way through? 

So I decided to share it with you all here. I took the photo in color and converted a copy to black and white. Then with the smart select tool, I selected the pear in the original and transferred it over to the b & W copy.

Awesome photo

Fantastic!  Great work.   

Thanks guys!

Good work!  I'll have to try that someday.  I've gotten that critical error message a couple of times, though not recently.  Once, my pict was a pixel or two, too big, and the other time, I wasn't sure what the deal was.

And this is the first time I have seen a red pear.

In His Grip,

Thanks Kevin! I hadn't ever seen a red pear either, until I found this one in a grocery store. As soon as I saw it, I thought it would be great to take pictures of, plus I was curious about the taste, so I bought a few. The pictures did turn out interesting having the red pears in there, but we were disappointed when we found out the inside looks like a typical pear and it tastes like one too. With changing the rest of the picture to black and white, I'm sure people think I tweaked the pear's color too, but it's the real thing.

What a great job you did!

I'm going to try that in Paint Shop Pro and see if I can do it.

Thanks Pat! It was a lot of fun and the fact that the color contrasted so much with the colors around it made it a lot easier to select than other things I've tried. Glad you like it and hope to see yours when you try it too.

Yes I have seen red pears, not any difference in taste, yes it was disappointing. 

The picture is far from disappointing though it is great. 

You have a great eye!

Thanks Judy!

Have you any other Pictures that you can post?

I've posted a few more pictures in my gallery, but none are like this style. I have another one of the out of bounds pictures to post of my son Matthew. I'll try to post it in a few minutes.

Will look forward to seeing Matthew, Deb.

I like this phot....I'm hungry!
