Focus With Light - Photoshop Effect Written by Steve Patterson. In this Photoshop Effects tutorial, we’ll learn how to add focus to an image with light using Photoshop’s Lighting Effects filter. We’ll see how easy it is to add multiple light sources to the same photo, rather than limiting ourselves to a single light source, so we can control both where the light is coming from and its reflections. Here’s the image I’ll be working with: The original image. I want to bring more attention to the flower and the woman’s face while reducing the importance of the rest of the image. The final lighting effect. Let’s get started! Step 1: Duplicate Your Background Layer The first thing we need to do is duplicate our Background layer since it contains our original image data and we always want to keep that safe in case we need it. Press “Ctrl+J” (Win) / “Command+J” (Mac) to duplicate the Background layer. Step 2: Open The Lighting Effects Filter Photoshop’s Lighting Effects filter dialog box. Step 3: Select The “Flashlight” Lighting Style

Adjustment Layers & Masking: Photoshop Tutorial What you need To follow through with this tutorial you need at least Photoshop CS. More recent versions of Photoshop may appear a little different (mostly the interface has added features) as this tutorial is originally from 2006, but the techniques here are sound and work quite well across all versions since its publishing. To follow along with this tutorial you will need to download this image: Adjustment-Layer.jpg (right-click and choose: Save As). What is an Adjustment Layer? Just as it sounds, an Adjustment Layer will adjust a property of your photo on a separate layer. Adjustment Layers also come paired with Masks. When Adjustment Layers were introduced in Photoshop 4.0 (way back in 1996) it revolutionized the workflows of millions of users. Masking is an essential tool for applying otherwise global changes (levels, colors, saturation) to isolated areas of your image. White: Anything on the layer this mask is attached to will show through on the image where there is white.

Infrared Photo Effect Written by Steve Patterson. In this Photoshop Effects tutorial, we’re going to learn how to simulate the look of infrared photography in Photoshop. We’ll be taking a look at Photoshop’s Channels palette and seeing how to isolate a color channel as well as how to apply filters to color channels, we’ll be using adjustment layers, specifically the Channel Mixer adjustment layer to adjust how much impact each individual channel has on the image, we’ll be using a few different layer blend modes, adding some noise, and at the end, seeing how to bring some of the color from the original image back into the effect. The term “infrared” literally means “below red”, and without getting into science or color theory, that means we as human beings can’t see it. Here’s the original image I’ll be using for this tutorial: And here’s the finished effect: Let’s get started! Step 1: Duplicate The Background Layer Photoshop’s Layers palette showing the Background layer containing my original image.

The initial sketch will appear in black and white, but at the end of the tutorial, we’ll learn how to colorize it with the photo’s original colors! In the next tutorial, we’ll learn a slightly different way to convert an image into a sketch, one that’s usually better suited for objects or landscape photos. This version of the tutorial is for Photoshop CS5 and earlier. Here’s the photo I’ll be starting with: The original portrait image.

Photo To Sketch With More Detail Written by Steve Patterson. In a previous Photoshop tutorial, we learned how to convert a photo into a sketch using a technique that works great with portraits, since it tends to leave out small, unwanted details like wrinkles and other skin blemishes while focusing more on the general features we want to see in the sketch, like a person’s eyes, nose and lips. Sometimes though, when working with other types of images like landscape or nature photos, buildings and architecture, still lifes, or really any image that doesn’t focus on people, you’ll want the sketch to include those tiny details the previous technique would ignore. In this tutorial, we’ll learn a slightly different way to convert a photo to a sketch that’s usually better suited for these other types of images since it often does an amazing job of bringing out fine details. If you’ve already read through the previous Portrait To Sketch tutorial, you’ll find that most of the steps here are the same. The original image.
