Imaginary dogs are the worst! They never seem to listen.

I wonder why their farts smell like something I ate.

What is that style of color/tone called?

ReachForTheStarfish In reply to TenicPhoto [2010-01-17 15:42:02 +0000 UTC]

...good question lol

What I did for editing in Photoshop was put a layer of deep yellow over the picture and switch it to Pin Light - that's how it brought out the different tones. I don't know if there is a specific name for it, but I just play around until I think it looks nice

I'm curious how to get this type of look.. if your willing to share that is!

ReachForTheStarfish In reply to savelove [2010-01-17 15:43:42 +0000 UTC]

I use Photoshop and then I make a new layer of a deep yellow (or sometimes blue... I think I used both in this one lol) and then change that layer to Pin Light and play around with the opacity
