So, its important. Today I just want to share how to edit and change the colours to the quality you want and have to be aware of too big colours edit/contrast will cause image noise.
What's image noise?>>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_noise
Anyway, today I just show how to edit a JPEG file format image. I just wanna share the basics since I'm still a learner, not professional.
Okay, first I opened an image of my sister with Adobe Photoshop CS4, then I go to Image> Adjustment> Curve.
You also can try click "Auto" as they will auto correct for you, but might not get the adjustment you looking for. Same to the "Auto Contrast/Auto Tone/ Auto Colour" which can be found in "Image" on the top bar.
Goto Image>Adjustment> Colour Balance.
Okay, because I want the background to have more saturated colours but I don't want to affect the talent( model for photography called talent)'s skin colour, I don't her skin look very reddish or too vibrant. so I create a mask layer to edit the color balance.
Now, the brush with black colour works like erase at here.Thus, I erase her skin part where I wan to maintain back her skin colour less vibrant and saturated, so on the layer below the mask layer will be shown to the front once I erased the mask layer with Brush tool with Black Colour.
Sorry if I confused you with my explanation. Try experiment with it, then u will know what I mean =).
So, I added this light effect, not too heavy on this, I added some glow with blurry Brush type as the light shone from behind, some lights should be added around her lightly.
The Brush I change its mode to "Screen" and opacity changed to around 20% - 30% and the layer's mode is "Lighten" I painted with brush on .
