{FLASHY} Fix-It Friday #82

Over at I Heart Faces they do a weekly participation edit. A contributor offers up a picture and anybody can join in and edit the photo. Looking through entries and checking out the steps somebody takes to edit is a great way to learn!

This is my first time participating, hopefully I did the picture justice!

My Edit

I have to admit I don't always have a set workflow for editing. I like to play until I like it! Here is a quick run down of what I did with this picture.

• Levels adjustment on all channels at 90% opacity
• Second levels adjustment on all channels at 50% opacity
• Brown gradient, hard light blend mode
• duplicated background image at 85% opacity (this is to let the gradient come through)
• duplicated background, screen blend mode at 45% opacity
• High pass sharpen, overlay blend mode
• High pass sharpen again, hard light blend mode
• And a slight crop
