IWA-HWG Photoshop Course. Weeks 1 & 2 Lab

Part 1. Color-Correct an Image Using Curves

Patricio should not be blue on his wedding day. I took a photo of my student Patricio outside the church without adjusting my camera for outside, so the photo came out with a blue cast. Below I list some of the details of the color correction scheme using Photoshop's Curves control that I applied.

Part 2. Restore an Image using Blend Modes, add a Sepia or Selenium tone (or any other color wash such as a cyanotype etc.) and retouch any tears and/or scratches

I worked on a scan of an old photograph of my mother in her sister's wagon. (Click here to see the tif file of the original scan.)
