1.) Open your photo in photoshop / gimp / whatever image editor you have that supports layers 2.) Copy the image into two layers 3.) "Desaturate" the colors in the TOP layer (I usually muck around with the contrast / brightness as well for dramatic effect) - this may also be labeled as "black & white" 4.) Use the eraser tool with the right types of brushes (generally a large one for the middle, and finer "feathered" ones for the edges so they blend) 5.) Presto! Save as a JPG / PNG. Depending on your photo editor you may have to "merge" the layers or "save as / export" the file so they layers come through.
