Color Adjusted Photos

This week I used Photoshop to adjust the lighting and color of two photographs.  There are many tools throughout Photoshop that allow you to adjust the whole picture, or adjust parts.  I used the color selector tools to manipulate individual colors in my photographs.  The Hue/Saturation tool is one that I used frequently as well as the Selective Color Tool.

Here are my adjusted images.

With this one, I was trying to make it darker, like later in the day.  I like how it almost has cartoon like appearance.

With this one I was trying to be more subtle.  I changed the counter top, making it green, and changed the lighting and shadows a bit using the Brightness/Contrast tool.  The image has more of a green hue.

  1. I like how you manipulated the first photo, the purple hues look really nice with the sky, very good job

  2. The way that you changed the color of just the counter top made me feel like I was playing the game where you have to spot the differences. I still need to figure out how to do that technique with Gimp. When I watched the photoshop tutorial it seemed easier but I couldn't get Photoshop to work for me.

  3. I like how you changed the hues in the first picture. It totally changed the feel of the image.
    I agree with Amanda about number two. At first glance, it didn't look much different.

  4. I really like your first photo. I agree that it gives it a slight cartoonish feel to it, at the same time looks mildly realistic!
