…In this project we'll be working with these two…photographs that I captured of a famous actress, Isabel Lucas.…And these two photographs were captured down at the…beach and I like the overall windswept feeling of…these photographs, yet I want to enhance the colors,…I want to make them more vivid and alive.…One of the things that I notice is that the images are a bit too cool.…So here, we're going to explore how we can…enhance the colors in one photograph, and then apply…those adjustments to another photograph as well.…Let's begin by selecting one of the pictures.…
I'll go ahead and select this one.…Then, I'm going to tap the F key to go to full-screen mode, and…then zoom in a little bit, so we can focus in on this photograph.…Well, in order to enhance the colors in this…image, we're going to take four different steps and create…four different adjustment layers beginning with creating an adjustment…layer which will allow us to change the color.…We'll start off by clicking…on our Color Balance Adjustment Layer icon and what I want to do is warm this up.…
