Open monochrome
Monochrome means just one colour, typically seen as being B&W or grey-scale. But it can be depicted by using shades of another colour, e.g. brown (sepia). By picking different shades of the same colour, you can highlight different areas of your photographs. Monochromatic photography is a great technique to isolate individual colours and make them really stand out.
