Thank you. I was lucky to catch my cat sniffing flower. This is just a basic colorized black and white conversion.

Make a copy of the photo, change it greyscale and change it back to RGB. Adjust the contrast the way you like it. Then, copy the color version and paste it as onto of the B/W version. Now, take the magic wand tool and select the flower. Then do an inverse selection, hit del. Now only the color flower is left on top of the B/W. Flatten the image and viola!
