Touch up Tuesday

 

Here is my straight out of the camera shot from my post this week

 2010 07 05_2630 

Now I loved this shot but the colors seem to dull for me I LOVE COLOR so what I did was increased the contrast to get the leaves more green then I put a very high contrast edit just on the berry its self to make them the plump red color.

I then corrected the color of Wyatt's hand to bring it back to a “normal” color.

How I did that was just use the skin color correction tool in photo shop 8 very simple and easy.

added a  darker color around the edges and BAM you get this!

It was one of the quickest edits I have done and its soooo my new favorite.

  3. Thanks guys, Courtney if you go into the full edit mode and use the smart brush tool its on the left with a paint brush and a screw looking thing. I use that and just captured the berrys and then at the top you can change the setting to high contrast it was that simple.
