This lesson we'll try to erase the luminescence effects on the picture, we'll learn several methods of changing the colors, give the eyes an effect of shining, imitate the decorative glasses, change the source of light and create the effect of having tear picture's edges.

First we need to open in a new window a photo representing a young girl: File ? Open.(ctrl+o)



Then make a copy of this layer to be easier to work with it: Layer ? Duplicate Layer (ctrl+j). The previous layer should be erased: Layer ? Delete ? Layer. Now we should mark out the background the girl is situated on by using the Polygonal Lasso Tool and erase it, applying the Delete button on the keyboard.



Make the corrections on the layer's colors by moving these luminescence effects on the girl with the next combination: Image ? Adjustments ? Selective Color.



Merge down now all the elements of the picture selecting the next filter designed for this operation: Image ? Adjustments ? Photo Filter.



Open after that in a new window that kind of texture we'll use for the background to be.
