Photoshop turns the sky blue to the sun

Do you have such trouble? When taking photos, the sky looks blue, the sunlight is very transparent, but when we opened the photos with joy, we found that the pictures were not as beautiful as imagined--the color of the sky became very dull and the sun was not enough. This PS tutorial introduces a method that uses Photoshop's channels, levels, and curves to make the sky

The pictures we take are often more prosaic than we imagined, this is caused by the difference between our eyes and the camera-when we focus on an object, his contrast increases and the contrast of the surrounding minor objects decreases, which means that our visual illusion forces the foreground to move in the opposite direction of the background color, Exaggerate the difference between the foreground color and the background color. And the camera does not follow these rules, he just truthfully record what he saw, so the photographs are often filled with approximate color, and lack of contrast. Because of the difference between the human eye and the camera.

1th Step-distinguish the world

The sky is too bright for this picture and the ground is too dim, and they need to be adjusted separately. Because the boundaries of heaven and earth are very irregular, the method of pulling the gradient is not good, but you can use the channel to distinguish their exact region.

Click Channel to view the three color channels, red, green, and blue, respectively. Compared with the blue channel, we found that the contrast of gray scale is the most obvious.

Click the blue channel and copy a "blue channel" copy. Then press Ctrl+l to execute the "level" command, adjust the parameters such as the picture, the adjusted image into Black-and-white two-color diagram.

Part 2nd-Adjust the sky tone

The previous step has been a selection, creating a ' level ' adjustment layer, parameter tuning as shown. Because the mask is used, the ground is not affected.

With black, the hardness of 0 brush paint mask the obvious stiff place on the Cosco, the other stiff place does not have to apply, the following will be handled

Click the Masks panel after adjust. Adjust feather to 25PX. This will make the constituency too soft. The sky and the leaves get a good transition.

For the transition to get more natural and softer. You can use a black brush to rub the edge line with a 500px size and 20% opacity, and then apply a small brush and rub it again.
