CHANGE COLOUR IN IMAGES WITH JUST ONE CLICK IN PHOTOSHOP OR LIGHTROOM

HOW TO CHANGE THE COLOUR OF ANY PHOTO IN PHOTOSHOP, CAMERA RAW, AND LIGHTROOM WITH JUST ONE CLICK
I recently made a video where I demonstrated to you guys how to utilise the neutralise button to correct any photo’s colour. I’ll provide a link to it below. And a lot of inquiries about it came my way. Will this Work in Camera Raw or Lightroom is one of them. No, however I do have a very comparable feature that functions in Photoshop, Lightroom, and Camera Raw.

We’ll use two pictures; the first one has a colour tint done for effect (you may or may not like it), but we’ll take it off, along with the second, which is extremely terrible.

Click on the adjustment layers in the Layers Panel and choose levels or curves.

The secret to what we’re doing is the eye dropper, just go down, grab the middle eyedropper. Which is our white balance tool.

All you want to do is drop this on an area that should be white, or neutral gray. The whites of the eyes work great.

Once you click, the colour cast is gone. (The mid tones have returned to normal, but the shadows and highlights have a distinct colour tint that needs to be fixed as well.)


Let’s fix the contrast on this really easily

So we’ve got the three eye droppers. First  you grab the black one.

Go to the area of the picture that is the darkest. Holding down the Alt or Option key while dragging on the black triangle in a histogram that displays the darkest areas will help you discover the point that is the darkest.

So, click with the black eyedropper on the darkest point. (you can see the shadow is a little blue)

The shadows are now fixed, the image may look a little yellow right now, but don’t worry, one more step).

Grab the white one. Lightest point. It’s going to be the background pop on there. Boom.

Contrast and color is fixed.


This week was a simple, quick tutorial.  This is not anything that’s even new in Photoshop. It’s been there forever and a lot of people miss it.
