Can you tell me how they made the color change to the photo?

[Sueratchet]

I will to purchase  the first picture' step into hope 123rf' but I want to make it look like the second one (only with permission of course) . Can anyone tell

me how they made the color change? Is it a mask over the whole picture or do you think they selected areas and used more color over the legs?

I have not played with it yet and am a self taught publisher user. I am just now learning designer/photo .

THanks so much.

Hi @Sueratchet and welcome!

It look like the use of LUT:

or some other way to modify the general tones of the images, like adjustement layers.

I am afraid LUTs are above my skills but you are right it looks like that is what they did. I will give it a try though .

Thanks for your generous resources and for answering my question

Affinity is not seeing my .cube files to import, ahhh

How are you trying to import them?

through the photos LUT adjustment layer

Thank you Walt, I got one to work. I think I was pointing to a folder and not the .cube file, sorry for blaming affinity.

You point to a file if you're loading a specific LUT (e.g., Load LUT in the adjustment layer dialog) but you point to a folder if you're Importing a set of LUTs into the Adjustments panel.

Instead of trying LUTs (predefined color settings), you could also f.e. try a Gradient Map. Because that is one of the filters I use most to create LUTs. In this filter, there are basically three points on a bar. The left side of the bar represents the dark pixels of the image, the right the light pixels, the middle the middletones. So if you f.e. set the left point to red, the shadows will become red. Just try it and you will see. You can also add some more points. And every point can get the color you want. And you can refine the effect by using blend modes and the opacity slider.

Or you could use the HSL filter. With it, you can interchange colors, darken or lighten them and give them more or less saturation.

Thank you so much, I will play with it.

One additional tip: in the free plugin G'MIC, there is a filter called "Color Presets", under the category "Colors", with a huge amount of very good LUTs. The only disadvantage is that they are no Live Filters, so destructive. G'MIC is very recommendable anyway. It offers more than 500 additional filters of different kinds.
