[PSN]Color Adjustment for Sunset

Some­times the color is just amaz­ing when you were there. Take this pic­ture as an exam­ple, when you walk along the beach, the sun­set is so glory. You can’t wait to take a cou­ple of pho­tographs before the color was fade off. But when you were back home, the color was not the one in your mem­ory.  In Pho­to­shop, you have more than two ways to “recall” the amaz­ing color. Here I used two tools to achieve this.

Orig­i­nal:

 

The two pic­tures below are all edited. The first one, I applied the con­trast and color tone by Curves tool. And the sec­ond was using Color Bal­ance. Two things need to remind: the adjust­ment will be applied in the whole pic­ture, so make use of the mask to rid off the objects which are not suit­able. when you are using mask and brush, a Gauss­ian Blur can make your stroke fuzzy and blurry. So it will be less intensive.

Alright, that’s all. Explore more~

Alright. I didn’t declare that this is actu­ally my study notes for Pho­to­shop. Any­way, from now on, the posts with the pre­fix [PSN] are my Pho­to­shop learn­ing notes. If you can’t under­stand what I’m talk­ing about. Obvi­ously, it is not the post for you. To begin­ners: don’t ask me how to use this or that. Open your favorite appli­ca­tion Pho­to­shop and explore by your­selves. you can learn more than my teach­ing. ;) The notes will only cover the ideas, con­cepts, tips, short­cuts, and take-away points.

FAQ:

1. Why the notes were writ­ten in English?

My Pho­to­shop is Eng­lish Ver­sion. I am too lazy to shift between En and CN. :)

2. Pur­pose for PSN?

Shar­ing my learn­ing with the world. And I can learn more from your comments.
