Kim Klassen’s does a feature and has for many years called Texture Tuesday, I have decided to join in to get better with my Photoshop skills.

Well what I did was as follows:

  1. Adjusted the WB slightly to add some warmth in Lightroom 3.
  2. Added a little fill light (15%) in Lightroom 3.
  3. Adjusted the clarity slightly (15%) in Lightroom 3.
  4. Increased the vibrance slightly (+50) in Lightroom 3.
  5. Increased the saturation slightly (+10) in Lightroom 3.
  6. Transfered to Photoshop CC
  7. kk_reverie, multiply @ 50% opacity
  8. kk_confusion, soft light @ 50%
  9. Flattened the image.
  10. Text layer and watermark added.

The pre straight out of camera shot is below, as you can see the exposure was not perfect, I really should have done an exposure adjustment here in camera.

I would love to know what you think and any tips to improve it I would love to hear 🙂
