So
Here Are Some Important Photoshop Tricks That You Should Now:
Boost The Contrast Of
Photo:
An easy way to quickly boost the contrast of any photo is to add a levels adjustment layer And just set its blend mode to soft light. Use your opacity slider to dial the contrast in exactly as you wish.
Sharpen A Photo:
Moving on, sharpening. The best way to sharpen a photo in Photoshop is to go filter, camera raw, it's going to send the photo out to the camera raw editor. And the trick here is to, well, first of all find the sharpening function in camera raw .but hold down your alt or option key as you use these sliders, it gives you a really great way to look at the sharpening as it's happening And make sure you don't sleep on that masking slider. It just helps restrict that sharpening To exactly the areas of the photo that need it.
Beautify Sunset:
One of my best tricks to beautify sunsets and make them
explode with color is to use color balance. Add a color balance adjustment
layer to your sunset or sunrise photos. Pump that blue, the magenta, and the
red and midtone shadows and highlights maybe play around with the rest of the
colors a little bit. See what looks good to you. It's gonna make any sunset
look epic.
Skin Blemishes:
Moving right along, a great way to clean up skin blemishes is
to create a new layer and to use the regular healing brush, not the spot
healing brush. Set to sample current and below. Hold down your alt or option
key and sample a clean area of skin and simply paint away the blemishes. Now,
the trick here is, you can use a larger healing brush and paint over large
areas of blemish, like bags under the eyes, maybe a large scar, or wrinkles and
then just reduce that layer's opacity and it will help fade those kinds of things.
So, wrinkles while they're still there will be far less pronounced.
Change The Color:
To quickly and realistically change the color of any object
in your photo, add a solid color fill layer and fill it with whatever color you
like. Then, invert that layer's mask by hitting command or control I and then
set the overall layer to the blend mode of either hue or color. You can play
with them and see what you like more for your particular image. Then, set your
foreground color to white and use the brush tool and paint in the layer mask to
reveal the color effect only over the object. You wish to change the color of.
Smooth Faded Shadows
Effects:
Add a curves adjustment layer and pull straight up on the
black point. Then pull down a second point around the 80% brightness range of
your image. Then boost the highlights by dragging just a tiny bit upward around
about the 40% brightness area of the curve. Bonus tip here, use those color
channels and curves. Try adding a little blue to the shadows and maybe a drop
of yellow and red to the highlight areas of the photo. Maybe even a little
magenta to the shadows as well.
See what works with your image and be subtle.
Adjust Balance:
Balance of light in your photo and almost digitally relight it. Set your foreground color to black And add a gradient fill layer. Choose the foreground to transparent gradient and set the angle to 90 degrees. Then, drag the gradient to darken up the bottom of your photo just a little bit. You can literally click on the gradient and drag it. Repeat that step but set white as your foreground color and set this gradient to the angle of negative 90 degrees. So, you'd brighten up the top part of the photo and then set both of these layers to the soft light blend mode and, again, use the opacity sliders to dial it in and make it look just perfect. Alright, number eight; this is one of my favorites. For the best consistently good black and white photo you can get across the board,Press the letter D and then press the letter X, it does will set white as your foreground color. Then add a gradient map adjustment layer and use the foreground to background gradient. Your image will go to look crazy, totally inverted, totally messed up. But just go ahead and hit the hot key, command or control J. It will duplicate that flipped and flopped and inverted layer and you will get this amazing, smooth yet contrast, black and white image.
Cool Lens Flare:
That actually interacts with your photo; first create a new
layer and set it to the blend mode linear dodge ads. Then, double click on that
layer to open up your layer styles dialogue box, check off transparency shapes
layer and grab a large soft edged brush. Set your foreground color to white and
simply begin painting in flares wherever you think your image needs it.
