Targeting Photoshop Adjustments

In post-production editing, there are a number of targeted adjustments you can use to improve your images. In this video, professional photographer Tony Sweet takes you into his edit suite and demonstrates a few of them.

You will learn some of the uses of the Nik Viveza software, which is a free plug-in you can download from Google. Editing a flower image, Tony shows you how to use the selective adjustment, Structure, to soften the background color and increase the details of the flower petals.

You also will learn how to use Alien Skin’s Snap Art software for painting with brushes.
