…In this movie we will finish off this project where we're looking…at how we can make more subtle color changes in our photographs.…And here we're going to create two more adjustment layers.…One which will effect the subject alone, and another one…which will add an area of brightness to the picture.…Well first what I want to do is zoom out.…Press Cmd+Minus on a Mac or Ctrl+Minus on Windows to zoom out.…Then let's click in to the background layer.…And choose the quicks elect tool, which you can find…in the tools panel or you can access by pressing…the w key and then position your cursor over the image…and just start to drag the subject, so that we can…select the subject here and make an adjustment just to her.…
And here we'll go ahead and drag this around these areas.…And then once we've done that, we want to access…the ability to clean up our edges a little bit.…We can do so by clicking on refine edge.…Refine edge gives us the ability to work with smart…radius and to increase that, that often helps edges out.…
