Here are some B&W/Color photos that I have made over the last few years.These are taken from different shows, rides, and plowing contests. Hope everyone enjoys them. (Avert your eyes if you dislike Case)

Looks great!! My question is, how do you do that?? Now that you posted these I have a bunch I could see doing this to
 
A program called FotoSketcher. There is a black and white setting on it and then you manually "brush" back in the color to the places you want.
Its fun to do for a couple hours on a snowy day.
 
one of the things i enjoyed most was moldboard plowing thanks to epa and fed involment not much of it done around here any more
i also like mowing,raking and baling hay not so much when comes time to go in barn
 

These are great photographs--I like the contrast between black and white and color. Did you process them yourself? I've made B&W prints, would be interested in how you incorporate color. Thanks for sharing, Gary
 
I got a close look at that one a couple days ago, actually sat on it. The owner is a very nice man and will gladly show you his collection if you like.

Thank you for the replies everyone!

RedMF40, as stated below I do it all digitally with a simple program. I do have to manually add the color back in (manually I mean with the mouse brushing over the spots I want to have color.) To make it look
good you have to zoom in and make sure that the edges of color do not bleed over into the background (done poorly this gives a glow or colorful aura to the tractor/operator).
 
Very cool, Connor!!!

I have to learn to do that. I have a program capable... just haven't learned that skill.
 
Very,Very Nice Picture's!
You know how to handle a camera.
Thanks for Sharing.

Dislike Case? Who could dislike Case? I am not a collector but I have owned two, and they did very well for me.
 
I like the Deere with the rider. Look to the sky.

Those look like old pictures, from the days when those tractors were new, until you see those windmills in the background.
 

Ok, thanks--I see someone else asked about the process, was too busy looking at the pics, should have read the replies ;-)
Very crisp detail, obviously you spent some time getting these right. Thanks for sharing, nice work!
 
Nice pictures of some good looking tractors.......I guess I'm lucky, I just look at the tractors, not who all may be riding on them. I do caution anyone I let ride with me to hang on tightly at all times and not "dope off". My tractors have good solid steps, fenders, and good things to hold on to.
 
I have an H Farmall that needs to do that for about a day once, and get the soot blown out of it.
 
He did some really neat pics for Bro and I a couple of years back These are the ones he did for me , perhaps Bro will chime in with his. Thanks again for these pics.

I can add that the two Case photos look very much how the old AC literature was printed up. The machines would be orange and everything else was B&W. Very nice.
