My goal here was to make the tennis racket match the scene better. While I was working with my threshold, I found that the color of the chair was close enough to get picked up. The shadowed part of the chair became a brighter, translucent hue, and also brought out a touch of texture. I liked it, and I kept it.

The sky was stormy, which gave us great even lighting, but it turned out to be not so dramatic. Making her eyes pop really helped.

I love the splash of yellow that the Color Match tool gave me here.

Wow I love the color in all of these portraits. They turned out really good! I really like the bright colors in the first one, normally portraits seems to be darker toned, but this one works really well. Great job!
I really like the portrait of the girl in the chair. It turned out really cool. The color change is very subtle and I’m not sure I see it very well. Nice job though.
The color replace on the spotlight photo is absolutely fantastic. I love the yellows it brought out from the other photo. I also liked the edits on hannah’s eyes.
