- Hey gang,…this is Deke McClelland.…Welcome to Deke's Techniques.…This week, we're gonna take a photograph,…and we're gonna convert it to black and white,…so it has an infrared slash snowy appearance,…and we're gonna be doing so…using what I consider to be…one of Photoshop's most underappreciated adjustment layers,…the Channel Mixer.…Here, let me show you exactly how it works.…Alright, so here we are looking at a couple of images…from the Fotolia image library.…And we're gonna start things off…with the black and white infrared effect,…which you can create by going up to the Layer menu,…choosing New Adjustment Layer,…and then choosing this guy right here,…Channel Mixer.…
And that will force a display of the New Layer dialog box,…at which point,…I'll go ahead and call this guy infrared,…press the Enter key here on the PC,…or the Return key on a Mac.…Now I'm gonna turn on the Monochrome checkbox…so that we're mixing a black and white image,…and I'll go ahead and crank the green value…up to it's absolute maximum…of +200%.…
