Photoshop two ways to share the gray scene photo for the Sky tutorial

Let's give you a detailed analysis of the two methods for the use of photoshop software.

Tutorial sharing:

Generally, two methods are used: one is to use Photoshop CS's "image filter" to add a blue sky to the photo. Although the color is monotonous, it also has a taste. Second, the blue sky and white clouds are directly added by means of synthesis,

Although the effect is better, it is complicated. I have created a tutorial for these two methods and would like to discuss with you.

First, use Photoshop's "image filter" to add blue sky to photos

First look at the effect chart:

 

 

Original image (such as figure 1)

 

 

Copy the background layer to the background copy (as shown in Figure 2 ).

 

 

On the menu bar, select "image \ adjustment \ image filter" (Figure 3 ).

 

 

Open the "image Filter" window and select "Cooling Filter (80)" in the "Filter" column )". (Figure 4)

 

 

Remove "keep brightness" and drag the "concentration" slider to make the screen blue as needed. (Figure 5)

 

 

Copy the background to "background copy 2 ". (See figure 6)

 

 

On the layers panel, move "background copy 2" to the top layer. (Figure 7)

 

 

Click the "Add Layer mask" icon under "layer panel. (See Figure 8)

 

 

On the tools panel, select gradient tool ". (See Figure 9)

 

 

Set "foreground color and background color" to the default value on the "tool panel", click "gradient option bar" on the "toolbar", and select "foreground color to background color. Select the "imitation color" option on the "option bar" to reduce the gradient color,

Make the gradient appear smoother. (See Figure 10)

 

 

Draw a vertical gradient line from top to bottom on the screen with the mouse. You can debug the length of the gradient to make it satisfactory. (Figure 11)

 

 

Merge layers and save to get a picture of the blue sky. (See Figure 12)

 

 

Second, the blue sky and white clouds are directly added by means of synthesis.

First look at the effect chart:

 

 

The front side introduced how to use Photoshop CS's "image filter" to add a blue sky to the photo. If you just want to add a blue sky, you can add a blue sky and white clouds. Open the photo to add blue sky and white clouds. (For example, Figure 1)

 

 

Select the tool panel "magic wand" and click the Sky section. (See figure 2)

 

 

After you click the sky part, you only select most of the sky. There are two ways to select all of the sky: First, press and hold the "shift" key multiple times and click the remaining Sky parts until you select all of the sky. 2. Click

Select \ select similarity, and select other skies. (Figure 3)

 

 

Attention should be paid to either method: first, it is best to enlarge the image so that you can see it clearly and select the selected sky; otherwise, the border after adding the blue sky will not be naturally merged; second, the "tolerance" of the "magic wand" should not be too large,

If it is too large, you may choose some unselected parts. If you select a part that is not selected, press the "Alt" key and use the "cable cover" tool on the "tool panel" to cancel the selection.

Select all the sky. (Figure 4)

 

 

Open another blue sky and white clouds image you want to add. (Figure 5)

 

 

Click "select" in the "select" menu ". (See figure 6)

 

 

Click "copy" in the "edit" menu ". (Figure 7)

 

 

Return to the original image (note: The Selected selection area still exists), and click "paste in" in the "edit" menu ". (See Figure 8)

 

 

After you click "paste in", the blue sky and white clouds are pasted into the selection area of the new layer to overwrite the original old sky. If the selected area is not fully occupied or you want to adjust the position of the white cloud in the image, select "edit"

"Free conversion. (See Figure 9)

 

 

Drag a small dot around the blue sky image and adjust the image size and position. (See Figure 10)

 

 

When you are satisfied with the adjustment, click any button on the tool panel, a dialog box appears, and click "Apply ". (See Figure 11)

 

 

If the sky is too bright or too dark, you can use "image \ adjust \ color level" to move the slider to adjust the brightness. You can also adjust the "opacity" of the new layer on the "layer" panel ", to make the added part more integrated with other parts.

If you are satisfied with the new image, click "merge layers" in the "layer" menu. A photo with blue sky and white clouds is successfully added. (See Figure 12)

 

 

All right, the above information is a small part of this software for all photoshop users to bring two detailed methods for the gray scene photo for the sky to parse all the content shared, you can see that the software users here, I believe that you are now very clear about the replacement method, so all of you will try to replace the sky in the photo according to the tutorial provided above.
