Textures 022: Lights

Jun 28, 2010 22:40

So, I know I've pretty much dropped off the face of LiveJournal, but it's been a busy year! I'm done with my first year of university (yay!) and looking forward to having a (hopefully) restful and productive summer. :)

But down to business! Ten textures, made from my own photos. They're really big: 3456x2304. Before you cringe, just think of how high-res they will be! And if you're into photography, think of how you can use them to apply cool effects to all your photos without having to resize them!

- I decreased the saturation of the light texture to -50 and put it on Screen, 100%.
- Added a grunge texture at Soft Light, 70%.
- Copy merged, pasted as new layer, set it to Screen, 50%.
- Added a Color Balance layer to take out some of the orange in the skin: (Midtones) Cyan/Red -15, Magenta/Green -10, Yellow/Blue +15.

Tip for using: don't forget that you can change the color/saturation with Hue/Saturation!
