Click it up a notch: What I learned

 

Click it Up a Notch
 
Click it up a notch wrote a blog post talking about the different ways you can work with black and whites and a couple of weeks ago prior to this I had learned a new way to change the look of my black and whites. For the two pictures I have I used the desaturate button and then I layered the photograph and went to the blend modes, there are a lot of choices to change your photos there from lighten to darken to screen, etc.
 
The picture below I used the screen method to bring in more light to the photograph.


The picture below I used the pin light to blend it and it gave a totally new perspective to the photograph. There are soo many great things you can do to a photograph in photoshop and totally change the way a photo looks!


In her post she said to post one photo but I couldn't resist sending these two just to share the different perspectives to both and what you can do to a black & white photograph to make them different and stand out.

I love the second one so much better! I've never tried the pin light. I'll have to look for that one. Nicely done! The extra contrast really helps the second photo pop.

I agree with Marisa, the second one pops a little bit more! I am so glad you are trying out different ways to convert your black and whites. I know it took me a long time to feel comfortable with mine. I always struggled with having too much gray instead of my blacks black and my whites white. Great job!!
