Hue/Saturation

This is the origional photo that I edited in terms of hue/saturation. The photo at the moment looks rather dull but by using photoshop it can easily be improved following these very simple steps.

First of you you start by thinking what sections of the photo can be improved. in this case it was the sky and the road. im going you make the sky a bit bluer and the road a bit brighter to give a clay effect. However, I do not want to change the picture too much in order to keep the photo looking natural. This can be acheived by making very suttle changes to the sturation for example.

When wanting to select a particular section of the picture you can either use the magic wand tool which may only selct part of the area you want, or you can use the lasso tool. This tool allows you too select the area you want to improve. Once the area is selected, you copy it by using Ctrl + C and using Ctrl +v to paste the layer as a seperate layer. This means you can just improve the selected area. Once the layer is selcted you can now start to make changes to that part of the photo. You do this by clicking on Hue/Saturation and moving the toggle across the bar until you have see the colour or shade you want. I wanted to make the sky a bit brighter and more vibrant and feel I found the couloyr that achieves this. You then click on Ok and you are ready to improve the photo even more

The next step was to start improving the road. You follow pretty much the same steps as above however the different amount of stauration will be different to get the red colour.

Here is the finished version of the picture and im my opinion I think it looks a lot better than before. The colour within the sections I edited are more vibrant than what it was previously.
