Friends who like photography sometimes often worry about not having a beautiful snow photo, of course, if you are in the south, it becomes a dream! Don't worry, today I will teach you to use tools to create super lifelike high-quality snow photos, rest assured! Not using the heavyweight tool of PS, which can be tired when finished, But also will not use too simple picture processing software, because that quality can not be guaranteed, the effect is not realistic. Today's tool is the latest release of the "Color Shadow 2010", 1 minutes to create a perfect snow photo, fast but no lack of professional quality.
Let's look at the comparison between the original and the effect (Figure 1).

Here's how to build the steps, a very simple few key functions can be achieved.
1. Start Color Shadow 2010, double-click the center of the interface can easily open the original picture, as shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2, open the original image, into the picture processing interface
2. Click on the "Digital darkroom" on the navigation bar to activate the side bar of the dazzling digital effects on the left. Click on the "Snow Effect" icon (Figure 3).
Figure 3, enter the digital darkroom function, using the "snow effect"
3. "Snow effect" can set parameters, but do not set the direct default can also get good results. If you want to keep improving, you can also adjust the parameters for different photos to achieve higher quality snow effects. It is easy to realize the initial snow scene (Figure 4).

4. Has it been completed? If only for the pursuit of snow effects, then you are done, it is so simple! But if you're as much of a demand for realistic snow as I am, I'm going to continue to be "perfect". As shown in Figure 5, in the bottom of the digital darkroom list, the color shadow also has a very convenient function---"Restore brush", it can erase the partial unsatisfactory digital effect, make the picture achieve more perfect. Use the color shadow of the "restore brush" will mm face conspicuous snowflakes wiped away, so as to let others feel our "professional".

6. My request is more and more abnormal, I think the snow should have some beauty, the image can not be too clear (such as clothing there), otherwise it is not realistic enough. But the simple use of fuzzy function is not desirable, so the loss of beauty, so I chose the "studio style" special effects! Select the "Digital Darkroom" in the "Studio style" icon (Figure 6), but this is after all, the studio photo special effects, not for snow do, so do not default parameters, the parameter value is lowered, Tone or use the default cold blue, so vague beauty immediately come out!
Figure 6, demanding increasingly demanding ... But the color shadow is still capable of creative work.
7. Once again using the "Restore brush" function, the mm face over the exposure to wipe back the original image, so that the face restore clear texture. It's done! If you want to compare the final effect or make the final adjustment, this time you can use the color of the human "YY" Original/Effect chart contrast function, "history" function (such as Figure 7), for proofreading and modification. Figure 8 gives the final finished product chart!
