Bring a Photograph to Life Using Levels With Zones

In this tutorial you’ll learn how to use levels in Photoshop to add a spark of life to an otherwise dull photograph. We’ll divide the image into different zones in order to process them independently, achieving an interesting look. Let’s get to work!


Watch the Video


Step 1

The first step is to open the image to pre-process it with Camera Raw. If you have a raw file (like .CR2 files on Canon cameras) just open it in Photoshop. If you are using a JPEG image to start, go to File > Open As, choose “Camera Raw” as the file type and open your file. Then the Camera Raw dialog will appear.

Open file in Camera Raw

This is the original image:

Original image

Step 2

Increase the temperature using the first slider. We’re looking for a warm look, so choose a value close to 8000k. Also, decrease the saturation to give it an older look. Do not change Contrast or Blacks as we will be changing them later using levels and curves.

Temperature and saturation in Camera Raw

Step 3

Go to Lens Correction and add some Lens Vignetting by moving the Amount slider down to -21. Then hold Shift and the “Open Image” button will change to “Open Object”. Click it.

Vignetting in Camera Raw

Step 4

Before starting to tweak levels and curves, remove anything you don’t want in your final image. In the example image there was a girl in the bottom left corner that I had to remove using the Clone Stamp Tool (S). Right-Click the layer and select Duplicate Layer, click OK and then Right-Click the new layer and select Rasterize Layer.

This way you will keep a copy of the original raw file that you can edit in Camera Raw just Double-Clicking on the layer’s thumbnail. Do your cloning and healing process in the new layer.

Removing unwanted people and objects from image

Step 5

Now we will start working with the different zones of the image. We can divide our image in 5 sections:

  1. The left walls in the foreground.
  2. The right walls in the foreground.
  3. The white building in the background.
  4. The road.
  5. The sky.
The five zones of the image

Step 6

We will start with the 4th zone: the road. Choose the Pen Tool (P) and select the Paths option (second button) in the upper toolbar. Now draw the shape of the road.

Selecting the road with the Pen Tool (P)

Step 7

Once you finish with the Pen Tool, Right-Click the newly created shape and select Make Selection. Make sure Anti-Aliased is ticked and Feather Radius is set to 0px, then click OK. Now go to Layers > New Adjustment Layer > Levels and create a new levels layer called “Road”.

New Levels Adjustment layer on selected zone

Now let’s adjust the levels. Double-Click on the Road Levels layer and the Levels Adjustment window will appear. Now move the black handle to the beginning of the histogram, and the white handle to the end of the histogram.

This increases the contrast of the area, as the white point of the histogram matches the white point of the area, and the same with the black point. However, you have to be careful because the smaller the area between the black and white handles, the less information you leave on that area. Move the middle handle to the right until it looks good.

Levels Adjustment

Step 8

Now repeat the process with the first, second and third sections (refer to Step 5). Use the Pen Tool (P) (or any other selection tool you prefer) to select the area, make a new Levels Adjustment Layer and move the handles to match the histogram.

Sometimes, like with the left wall, it’s good to make more than one adjustment layer: one for the whole area, and another one for a smaller area within. For instance, for the left wall I used a layer for the whole building, and then another layer for bottom floor of the first building.

Comparison of no levels, some levels and full levels adjustments.

Step 9

Once the road and all the buildings have their own Levels Adjustment Layer, let’s work with the sky. Right-Click on the first layer (the original image, not the rasterized one) and select New Smart Object via Copy. Rename the layer to “Sky Layer” and move it to the foreground. Double-Click it to edit it in Camera Raw and use the following settings:

Camera Raw settings for sky layer

Notice that we have decreased the temperature, in order to cool the sky a little bit. Also we have decreased the exposure and increased the contrast in order to get some details in the clouds. Now use the Pen Tool (P) to select the sky, bordered by the buildings’ roofs.

Right click the new path and choose Make Selection, and use the selection as a mask for the Sky layer. It’s good to feather after having set the mask rather than before, as you can see how the different values for the feather work in real time, using the Masks panel.

Selecting the sky

Step 10

The buildings are very bright, and the sky is quite dark, so let’s ease that difference a bit. Create a New Smart Object via copy from the original one and use these adjustments in Camera Raw:

Camera Raw settings for new layer

Rename the layer to “Sky surroundings” and Ctrl-Click on the mask of the Sky layer. Go to Select > Modify > Expand and use a value of 100px. Choose the Sky Surroundings layer and then click on Layer > Layer Mask > Reveal Selection. Now it’s time to feather the mask a little bit using Select > Refine Edge. A Feather value about 70px is OK, but experimenting is key.

Comparison, with and without Sky Surrounding Layer

Step 11

To end up, make a loose selection of the sky and make a new Levels Adjustment Layer to tweak it a bit. Optionally you can add a global levels layer. Now go to Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Curves, name it “General Curves”, and choose Linear Contrast from the dropdown menu on the Adjustments Panel. It will increase the general contrast a little.

General curves adjustment

Finally, let’s add a black border: Go to Image > Canvas Size, disable Relative, and use 50px as width and height. Click OK, create a new background layer and fill it with black. We’re done!


Conclusion

Although the process is pretty simple, the results are quite impressive. Here you can compare the original image and the final one.

And the final result:

WordPress Website Clone 2

I am looking for a clone of http://crazythingsparentssay.com/.

This is a 3 column WordPress layout with a google adsense/or banner spot at the very top (768×90) one at the very top right (336×280)
and then a few spots for skyscraper type banners or adsense on the right hand side column.

I need the header to be changeable (top graphic) and require the same thumbs up and voting system. Obviously there has to be a way to admin the website like a regular WordPress blog.

Each post needs to have the ‘social buttons underneath like Facebook, Twitter, Digg, StumbleUpon & Reddit..

It should have the ability to post a picture or embed a video instead of a text post.

Here is another example of a website: http://engrishfunny.com

I like all the available spaces for ad banners and advertisements.

=====================================================================
**PLEASE DO NOT BID MORE THAN OUR MAXIMUM BUDGET IF INTERESTED!!! YOU ARE JUST WASTING OUR TIME & YOUR OWN & OBVIOUSLY HAVE NOT READ OUR DETAILS!
=====================================================================

*This is a simple job for someone who know WordPress design well-and shouldn’t be a big project!

Thanks..

Event Registration With Paypal

I have one uncompleted project using WordPress. It is event registration with Paypal.

My current programmer done this event registration for just single registration for each event. however, we need to have ability to add 2nd registration for each event.

for e.g.
We handle cooking class. most class is just one registration. but, some class has AM and PM class registration have to be separate.

See this attachment for what we have now.

Php / Javascript Web App

My projects make use of UML documentation. I would need you to familiarize yourself with UML, if you are not already. UML is a visual language that makes designing object oriented applications easier as it aids in communication and in visualizing the application before its built. It can also be used to automatically generate code (mainly generating classes, with their attributes and operation names) which then provides a template from which the rest of the application can be coded. I am hoping to find someone who is willing to consider working within the UML software for the designing of classes and operation naming, etc as this can help cut down on errors and increase efficiency and if I need to hire additional programmers for a large-scale project this helps in communication.

The attached .zip file has more comprehensive info, including a few UML diagrams. Please spend a few minutes browsing through this to get an idea of how the project instructions are documented and let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks for your interest and I hope to have a chance to work with you.

Create Facebook Page

Hi guys

I am looking for a Facebook Fan Page landing page to be designed and installed into my page.

It has to be structured similarly to the page of: www.facebook.com/Disneyland – Food & Wine page

I have attached my website header, which we want to use on top of this canvas.

We would have 5 live tabs at the top, corresponding to some functions in our website.

Going down, we would like a very nice background behind the different modules, suggestions welcome.

See second image attached also:

These are the following apps/modules I would like in the page, similarly laid out to Disney above.

1. As per attached image, I need a Video app module with voting capability, where the videos and text can be easily exchanged to run a video of the week.

2. Under the videos, I need an AWeber signup form (I will provide the code in due time) in a nice frame

3. I need another frame for images, like a slideshow with buttons (again, see Disney example)

4. Last frame for a single video in a frame with text to the right for upcoming events etc..

5. Facebook Comment box as on Disneyland

The frames need to be visually top appealing and the overall design must be very friendly.

Desired Rules please:

– No automated replies will be considered.

– Only experienced designers to take part, must send one or two examples of similar work. Don’t let me browse through 100 design portfolios please, kindly pinpoint your similar work, thanks

– Turnaround by Thursday this week: completed and installed, so that I can upload videos and images. $20 bonus for sticking with this.

– would be great if you could make a quick mock-up to express your ideas on a beautiful design.

I have a budget between $50 and $80 max for this page plus the bonus.

Thanks and looking forward to working with the right person.

Happy communicating 🙂
