Photoshop Layers

Juliann in Selective Color B&W achieved in Photoshop CS5 with Layers and Masking — Juliann in B&W with selective color achieved in Photoshop with Layers and Masking

Friday, February 24th I am teaching a beginners course on Photoshop Layers. Layers allow us to make complex adjustments in a non-destructive manner. In the image above I created a duplicate layer then using Silver Efex Pro2 I converted that layer to B&W. By applying a mask to the new layer I am able to choose which parts of the image show as B&W and which parts retain the original color. This is just one of many topics I will cover in the workshop tomorrow.

Headshots
I called Bob on very short notice for some pictures. I did not have any hard & fast rules so Bob’s direction and guidance was really appreciated. I felt really comfortable with Bob’s process; he & Julie helped to create a fun & casual atmosphere.
My pictures turned out just beautiful! Thank you, Bob. I’d recommend you to anyone.

If you haven’t experienced a workshop with Bob, your missing the chance to expand your knowledge and creativity of your photography skills along with a fun time and interesting challenges and places to photograph.
