Hi there!

I can’t colorize a black and white picture from a miscroscope, no matter what I do.

Please give me a help. (I am new to Photoshop).

Best Regards Vangelis

More info...

I can't put color in my blck and white picture even if, I create a new layer and use the paint bucket it makes it gray!
And in the channels options the color/hue/saturation/luminosit*y are greyed out!

If anyone can give me a help would be great.

Sorry for the many posts but because I am new to this forum (I had only 3 post) I couldn't post a link for the image.

Here are the images for referance.

Create new layer click on IMAGE -ADJUSTMENTS - COLOUR BALANCE pick your colours and have fun, lots of other ways but thats the quickest.

Sounds like you could be in Greyscale Mode.

Go...Image > Mode > and put a check mark beside RGB Color
