These are lovely and IMO very well done. I've done this manually, but never on the computer.

Thank You, I appreciate it very much Doing this manually is above my skill set. I've never tried it.

This is a brief summary of the process I used on the computer.

These were all edited in Lightroom. Start in the HSL- Saturation, move all sliders to -100 so you've completed de-saturated the images. Create a user preset , mine is De-Sat 1 so you don't have to do this step for every picture. Then click on the targeted adjustment symbol. top left corner of the HSL. Move to the area you want to bring the color back into, left click your mouse and hold, slide your mouse up to increase the saturation. You'll see the color sliders for those colors moving to the right, saturate to taste. I do the other editing in the basic and detail panels first before re saturating. Remember this is a global adjustment, so it works best on shots like the green of the old mill, or the blue of the bluejay. Shots where that's the only area that or those colors are !!! PM me if I can help further.

I like all of your photographs, colorful where needed/wanted, sharp and well composed. What's not to like?
Well done.

Interesting set. Really like the Iris, but the "out of focus" pink flowers seriously detract from its beauty.

Thank You. I debated on the pink, it does draw the eye away from the iris. Appreciate your viewing and commenting !! After removing the pink I still like the pink one. Thanks again !!
