VIVID

His eyes are a strikingly vivid blue.  I converted the photo to black and white then restored just the color in his eyes to highlight them.

I can't think if a better use for selective coloring. This would be a good portrait from the start, but the way you've highlighted those sparkling blue eyes turns it into something that is visually arresting.

The blue is beautiful, but the lack of sjin coulur makes him appear gravely ill to me!

You did a great job with the color and making those baby blues sparkle like that. Beautiful!

Great example for this technique, especially with these eyes so clear and bright. I also like how you have cropped in close on just the face.
