Constellation Of Lotus - Photo Effects

Now we'll make the corrections on the new layer's colors, using the next selection: Image – Adjustments – Selective Color.



Open in a new window a textile texture, containing the picture of the lotus flower (ctrl+o).



Mark out the texture, choosing the Rectangular Marquee Tool and make a copy of it (ctrl+c). Next we need to insert the texture above the girl's layer (ctrl+v).



Then hide the visibility of the layer in case by clicking on the eye's icon in the Layers window. Mark out on the picture everything that already is of black color, choosing the next option: Select – Color Range.



Connect again the visibility of the layer containing the texture. Combining next buttons ctrl+j, we have to copy only this marked part of the layer. The previous layer should be erased: Layer – Delete – Layer. Next step we'll just decolorize the layer: Image – Adjustments – Desaturate (shift+ctrl+u). Finally we have to change the layer's Blending Mode on Soft Light.



Increase a little the layer's brightness, applying the here shown option: Image – Adjustments – Curves (ctrl+m).



Merge down the layer in case with the girl's layer (ctrl+e), correcting a little the colors (Selective Color).
