PS skills exchange: Comprehensive PS skills in the later stage
Photographers have been asking this kind of questions. I want to write a post but feel that the content involved is too large. My personal ability is very limited and it is difficult to answer completely in one post. If I really want it to be complete, I will need a book. A monograph on PS techniques. But how to deal with a portrait photo specifically? There are still certain basic steps and methods, so I will share with you the post-PS processing process based on a portrait I once took. Please correct me if there is any inappropriateness.

This is “grinding” fine The effect is 95%, most girls like it very much, but I feel it is too delicate
The following is the entire processing process
The original shadow of the arm showing the bones should also be Deal with it, I’m too lazy to deal with it. Of course, there are many PS techniques for processing portraits. It is impossible to introduce them all in one post. I will write them again when I have time later, but these most basic techniques can be used flexibly according to the situation.
