How to Replace a Sky in Photoshop

0

How to replace a sky in Photoshop

The first thing you will need to do when replacing a sky in Photoshop is to create a selection of the sky and use it to define a layer mask. This will basically “cut out” the sky and make it much easier to place another one. In this image we use the magic wand tool and refine edge to cut out the sky, but you may use other methods depending on the image you choose.

Once the sky is cut out, it is important to choose the right sky. You will want to be sure and match the direction of the light as well as the atmosphere. In the original image the sun was to the right and above our subject, so we chose a sky that had a similar point of view.

After placing the new sky into your photo, it is time to match color and lighting. If you are lucky, they will just line up, but most of the time you will have to adjust colors to make them fit. In this episode we teach you how to use clipping masks, which only effect the layer you choose. We then use a combination of Curves, Hue/Saturation, and Blend If to make everything blend together seamlessly. Working with color can be tough, but don’t give up, it is worth the time to learn.

After matching the coloring from the sky to the ground, we decided to color the entire image. This will further help to bring the composite together, and will add style to the image at the same time!

How to Create a Black & White Image In Photoshop (Part 1)

0

Creating a Black and White Photo

In this episode you will learn 3 different methods for creating a black and white image in Photoshop as well as the pros and cons of each.

We start off with the most simple approach to creating a black and white – desaturate. To desaturate an image, make a stamp visible layer by hitting Ctrl+Optn+Cmd+E and go to image-adjustments-desaturate or press Shift+Cmd+U. This is the fastest way to turn an image black and white but lacks the control of other methods.

Next we use the Black and White adjustment layer which will allow you to adjust the brightness of your image based on color, for instance you can make the reds lighter and the blues darker.

The final method we use is the Channel Mixer, appropriate for when you want to create an image with a ton of contrast.

Additional Effects
After we turn our image black and white we apply a field blur to draw more focus to the subject’s face and top it off with a little grain to make the blur a bit more realistic.
