I never have time to sit around and play with textures and actions in photoshop, but since I’m in Montreal on a short vacation I decided to have a little fun in Lightroom and Photoshop. Â We actually ate at the little restaurant in the picture the night before and I saw the cute pots by the window and decided to take a picture the next day. Â The image without being touched is very flat and slightly boring, but I love how there is a plant missing, so I decided to see how I could make this image more interesting. Â The first thing I did was make some adjustments to the image in Lightroom. Â I boosted the blacks, contrast, clarity, and saturation, then added a vignette. Â After I did that I opened the image in Photoshop and played around with a few of my black and white actions and decided to use the grainy b&w…one of the steps in that action plays with the saturation which gives the image a brown tone. Â Even thought the image had some texture from the grain, I wanted more so I used a photograph of a stone wall and put it on top of my image making sure I used the overlay tab to make it slightly transparent. Â I still wasn’t super excited about the image so I put it back in Lightroom and boosted all of the settings again adding some Fill Light this time and another vignette…Voila!
