Apr 21, 2013 21:32 | #1 I took a series of images last week that all had dull gray skies behind the subject, so I altered the final image in Photoshop. Someone asked how I did that, so I produced a quick demo using one of the other images from the series. Click the link: http://www.screencast.com/t/OPuDv81kfE Steve Cavanaugh

Of course, there's that small nit where you say, "Looks like we have some cleanup..." ; ) For a subject with hard edges, or something like hair to contend with, there are some links in: Selecting areas in PS. Yeah, well if I was planning on keeping that one, I would make sure to put clouds behind the bird so that cleanup was not required. If I had realized when I started the video, well... Steve Cavanaugh

You can avoid that halo effect if you make sure there are some clouds right there behind the bird. That's way easier than editing the edges. Steve Cavanaugh

What is the hard part, is that not all the ugly skys are nice and monotonous like here. Nevertheless a very good tutorial and BTW has anyone told you that you have a Wonderful Voice Box? With sound like that, I would like to see a lot more tutorials from you! Thank you. Steve Cavanaugh
