Blending Assignment
Read MoreHeavy Photoshop work
- Bottom layer is sky darker than layer with building.
- Next layer is a gradient layer with a mask applied that just selects the sky; the mask was created using the Wand, Laso, and Quick Mask.
- The gradient layer was converted to a Smart Object and a Average Blur filter was applied
- The next layer up is a layer filled with the filter "Render Clouds"; the blending on this layer was set to only 6%
- The next layer up is the layer with everything except the sky; The layer was converted to a Smart Object and a "Unsharp Mask" was applied
- The next layer up is a Hue/Saturation layer with a mask that just lets the gazebo be visible through the mask; I changed the blues on the gazebo to green so that when I darkened the water with the Black & White filter it did not darken the gazebo areas the same.
- The next layer up is a "Black & White" layer with the following mix: r:49/y:140/g:-119/c:89/b:-144/m:46
- The last and final layer is a "Levels" where I adjust the output values for the hightlights so they were not blown out.
