You can remove color with the brush tool or do it in layers.

Lightroom has great plug ins for color dropping that you can get from Onone software for free...

you can drop any color and de-saturate it in about 2 seconds

I should add all I did was click the WOW plug-in on the left for the color I want to keep and turned down the saturation on the right.

Lightroom isn't that expensive comparatively.

In photoshop, just duplicate your background, desaturate it, and use the eraser brush on your second layer to remove b&w areas that you want in color.
