Trying to learn PS3 I am playing around with B&W e.g. selecting part of a photo and changing just that part to B&W.
To do that I use the 'quick selection' tool to draw around the main subject and then (theoretically) change that to B&W or invert the selection and change the other parts.
The problem is sometimes (for some reason I can't fathom) it just won't invert the selection.
An example is this photo of a bee on a flower.......(the choice of subject is irrelevant as I'm just playing with different subjects but attach this as it's the one thats giving problems).
I select the bee (only roughly-not bothered about individual hairs etc as I'm only playing around) but it will not invert.
Normally when I click 'invert' the 'line of ants' stays around the subject while another line goes around the whole photo but in this case nothing happens:C
Any ideas why ?
In case it matters it is a jpeg file.....does it only work in RAW??
Helpppppppppp!:-C
