Tuttifrutti Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Good evening all, Hopefully you can advise me? I have a colour image with a totally bleached out sky. I want to select the sky and darken it in some way to see if there are any clouds at all I can find, that would add interest to to top part of my image . It's a church scene. I've found out how to select the edges of the rest of the image but i'm stuck as to how I then darken the selected area. Please can someone help. Many thanks Quote
Staff stokerg Posted March 21, 2019 Staff Posted March 21, 2019 Hi Tuttifrutti and Welcome to the Forums, Once you've selected the sky you can try adding Shadows and Highlights adjustment (Layer>New Adjustment Layer>Shadows and Highlights) Move the highlights slider which may recover some of the sky. If you are working with a RAW file, you can try the Shadow and Highlights option in the Develop persona and it may recover more. A good video tutorial which may also help is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPduwDTM7TM and if you are working with a RAW file, this would be another good video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khonmp51jYo&feature=youtu.be You could also look at replacing the sky as shown here Quote
