There we were, on this gorgeous beach in Oregon with the tide out, seastacks beautifully outlined and a rainbow. Click, click, click. Back at the computer looking at the images, while I knew the rainbow was there when I took the photo, it was barely visible in the photo. I tried a number of techniques in post to pull it out, none really doing the job. I than emailed my good friend Joe Sliger at Wacom who came up with a very cool and effective technique to help solve the problem.
How do you get to this point in your photography? First, venture with us on a DLWS event. Than after getting the great images and a good start with Photoshop with us, you head to Photoshop World where you learn from the best and most creative in the business! This particular image required knowing black & white conversion, creating and using a gradient, layers and masks, free transform, actions and typography. You can learn all of this and a whole lot more in the most fun packed, adrenaline rich, creative energized environment on the planet! I know I’ll be there and I look forward to meeting with you there.
