This video will teach you more in depth how to selectively apply skin tone corrections using layer masks. I show you what curves were used but for more in depth information on skin tones and color correction, check out my online Photoshop Workshop called “Color Fixing.”

Enhancing photos in CS4 using Noiseware Pro and Topaz Adjust 3 with layer masks.

20 Feb

In this tutorial I show how I further improve image quality of a photo after RAW editing in Lightroom 2. Opening the photo from LR to CS4 in 16bit tiff 300dpi mode and then using layer masks with Imagenomic’s Noiseware Pro and Topaz Adjust 3. This is “my way” of enhancing nature photos where there’s a lot of separation between the background and subject. I do not using Topaz Adjust 3 on portraits nor do I use it on landscape shots. I’m also a “self-trained” photoshop user, so if you know that I’m doing something wrong or a better way to do it, then please let me know.
