Lately I have been adding a lot of textures to my photos. Which give them some depth and great contrast. This photo shows that. I did nothing to the photo I just added this free texture...
Which I got from Here
(how to add texture in PSE8 is go to file, place, choose texture, accept, go to layers pick either soft light, overlay or whatever you'd like adjust the Opacity then right click it to simplify it so you will be able to use erase or brush tool to remove texture over certain areas.)
I didn't erase any texture this time I did lightened it, boosted the color with PW Boost action, reduced the noise, sharpened, added my watermark and was done.
Sometime you don't have to do a lot to make it look like you did...
That is what texture can do for you.
I haven't played with textures before and I really should give it a try because this looks really good.
ReplyDeleteBoth images are beautiful..but I am partial to the one with texture.
