In TipSquirrel there is a tutorial on "Unifying an image with Selective Color" By Michael Hoffman. Can this be done with Photoshop Elements.

I am not very knowledgable on Photoshop Elements as I generally use Lightroom 4.

google: photoshop elements selective colour tutorial, and you'll find plenty of matches. – Matt Grum Nov 19 '12 at 11:56
The Hoffman tutorial refers to a Photoshop adjustment layer that lets you apply a colour cast to an image. Not the usual selective color technique (mostly B&W image with some small thing in color). So those google results aren't very helpfule. Sue, if you're still looking, you'll probably get better help in SuperUser or Graphic Design. – MikeW Mar 31 at 4:27

You can use either 'sponging' or 'masking' Which will both achieve the effect i believe you are trying to achieve. Masking is much simpler and more effective i believe but its up to you.

Hope it helps!

Those two, and my answer which I've deleted, deal with something different than the "selective coloring" referred to in the Michael Hoffman video. That is a tool in Photoshop that lets you apply a color cast to the entire image. Not the selective coloring where you have a black and white image with a selected area remaining in color. – MikeW Mar 31 at 4:25
