Turn waste into treasure and use Photoshop to create artistic pictures – effect tutorial

Turn waste into treasure Use Photoshop to create artistic pictures I am not a professional photographer, and the photos taken with a digital camera are not very good~~ Fortunately, I can use Photoshop to turn some discarded photos into artistic pictures.

This is the original picture:

This is the modified picture:

Now let me talk about my production steps to provide you with some ideas.

First, open the original image in photoshop, and then use the [Image/Adjustment/Levels] command in the menu (Ctrl L).

This will pop up A dialog box, fill in “160, 0.6, 255” in the numerical values ​​and then confirm. At this time, the basic effect of the picture comes out.

Click on the layers panel Click the New button below to create a new blank layer.

Use the Circular Selection Tool to draw a circular selection on this blank layer and fill it with color. The color values ​​I use are RGB=255, 255, 204.

Adjust the transparency of this layer to 30%

Use the Polygonal Lasso Tool to make a selection of the eaves that overlap the moon.

Click the “delete” key to delete this part of the content, and then cancel the selection ( Shortcut key: Ctrl D) The effect is basically out, but it is still not as good as we imagined.

Let’s do it again Improvement: Double-click the moon layer to bring up the “Layer Style” dialog box, select “Outer Glow”, and set the size to 120 pixels. Then “OK”. Did you see that? Much softer than before.

The color is still a bit bright ,right? First merge all layers (shortcut key: Ctrl Shift E), then use the [Image/Adjustment/Hue Saturation] command (Ctel U) to adjust the saturation to “-20”. Is the color better?

Use the rectangular selection tool Make the following selection:

Use the menu [Edit/Stroke] command to pop up the stroke dialog box, set the stroke width to 1 pixel and the color to white.

Delete the selection after tracing (Ctrl D).

OK, let’s take a look at the effect!
