Skillfully use ps to match colors for color photos, creating a dreamy effect.

I made a picture of my previous dream on a whim today. In my dream, the place called Lancao Manor is a holiday holy place in the future world, with blue and purple grass all over the mountains.

However, such a map is not easy to find, and it would be irresponsible to use lavender fields in Provence directly. Coke orange simply PS yourself, and share the PS process here by the way.

This technology can easily print the tone of one picture on another, producing magical effects. Let's start the demonstration:

First, find a picture of grass. This light is dark and the color is very single. But the composition and layering are great.

Lancao Manor is a quiet and distant place. This picture, regardless of tone or atmosphere, has this taste.

Open two pictures with PS. Switch to the grass picture and select Image-Adjust-Match Color from the menu.

In the pop-up window, set the source as Snow Mountain Map and confirm. You can also make some fine adjustments through the above three sliders.

Something amazing happened, didn't it! The color of the snow mountain map has been absorbed, which is natural. However, the bright area at the top right of the picture looks unsightly. This cold light makes the picture feel a little gloomy and needs to be adjusted again.

Select Image-Adjust-Replace Color from the menu.

A window pops up and the mouse pointer becomes an eyedropper. The next operation is easy to understand, replacing colors, as the name implies. Use the eyedropper to absorb a certain color in the picture, and the color block at the top of the window is the color you absorb.

Click on the color block below and choose the color you want to change. Adjusting the ambiguity (as if called "tolerance") can expand/narrow the influence range of the replacement color. However, this is not a distance range, but a color scale range. Similar colors will be replaced together.

Let's choose a dusk color.

The sky is already warm. But the light range is too small and the light is too dim. There is still a large area covered by cold light, and the light source is particularly strange and incompatible with dusk.

Change the color again, absorb the cool color at the junction of cold and warm, and change it to a slightly darker dusk color than before.

Very well, the sunset and blue grass reflect a wonderful Burgundy at the junction of light and shade. The catkin flying Dindar is still faintly visible.

But there is a white dot at the bottom left of the picture, which is very ugly. I think it's reflective or something. Erase with a repair tool.

You're done! It's the scenery in my dream.

Color matching+replacement color is widely used. It can polish dim photos taken by low-end equipment, make some small fresh pictures in film style, process normal photos into strange tones, and even whiten skin. Of course, Coke Orange suggests that it is best not to use this trick in food photos, and the result is likely to save you a lunch.
