What Color Splash: Color in B&W does

  • Choose the detail to keep vivid

    Sample a colour, adjust its range and keep it across the whole photo, within a subject or in a rough area.

  • Correct selection edges by hand

    Paint missed colour back in or erase spill directly on the photo. View the selected area at actual size and undo corrections.

  • Quiet the rest of the photo

    Reduce background saturation, adjust contrast and tune hue. Compare with the original before keeping the change.

  • Add a light accent if it fits

    Choose from five optional light accents after setting the subject and background.

  • Inspect the export before saving

    Preview the PNG or JPEG with dimensions and file size, revise the edit, then save, share, print or copy a full-resolution PNG.
