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~
