Greetings friends! It's been a couple months since I posted an editing video, so here's a fresh one for all my fellow Photoshop lovers. π€
Recently I was having a "shoot for fun" day and I decided to photograph some concord grapes that I had in my kitchen. I didn't have a plan for how I wanted to edit the images; instead I was just shooting and experimenting with lighting and angles. Afterwards I decided to pop one of the stills in Photoshop to play around with it, and to make a long story short, this is what happened :
Aren't they gorgeous? ππππππ Yes- I may be biased, but I am OBSESSED with how these turned out!
I ended up cleaning up the background using the Patch Tool and Spot Healing Brush. Then after some minimal edits to clean up the grapes themselves, I created a new Hue/Saturation Layer and began sliding around with the Hue and Saturation. I exported various stills in different colors like the images above, but I decided to keep going and see what kind of colorful animation I could make of them.
Here's an example of the before and after so you can see the original image versus the final edit: β¨
