Making an Image look warmer and brighter


15 of May2007

Often we are presented with images that we need to use that do not look very good. This tutorial provides a way to make poor images look better.

  1. In Photoshop, open the offending image.
  2. Duplicate the current image with Layer->Duplicate Layer
  3. Change the blend mode to “overlay style”
  4. Select Image->Adjustments->Hue/Saturation
  5. Reduce the saturation down to a pleasant level
  6. Reduce the opacity on the top image layer until it looks good.
  7. Compare the 2 images by toggling the visibility of the top layer

    Enjoy
