Description

Once again, cropping solved the fact that my buddy and daughter were not enhancing the photo. I adjusted the color of this by bringing in a color balance layer. I played with the green a bit but all the slider did was add green or turn our faces pink. I then messed with the blue and added blue. Completely made the water look better. Then I added Curves and went up with the whole curve slightly, making the contrast much more desirable. Lastly, I added the Hue/Saturation layer and went +14 on the saturation which nicely brought back the color to our faces. I am really proud of this as it is now a shot that I will keep and enjoy forever. As I mentioned earlier, I really like using many of these layers together to get a whole overall enhancement to a photo.
