Basic Photo Corrections in Photoshop CS
Welcome to the pinnacle of photo editing: Photoshop CS! While retouching in Photoshop can become second nature, it requires learning the ropes first. This powerful application boasts so many features that you could spend years mastering the basics alone.
Most users, however, don’t need advanced expertise in Photoshop. What we truly desire is the flexibility, precision, and vast range of options that the software offers. Let’s explore some of the most fundamental photo corrections in Photoshop CS that you’ll find indispensable. Following are the initial steps recommended by experts, which are applied to almost every photograph:
1. Duplicate Your Original: Begin by making a copy of your original image. Working on a duplicate ensures that you always have the original file intact, protecting your work from unintended changes.
2. Ensure Correct Resolution: In computer graphics, there are two main categories of resolution: monitor resolution and image resolution. Image resolution can range from low (around 72 pixels per inch, or ppi) to high (300 ppi or more). Higher resolution means larger file sizes. To adjust the resolution of your photo, go to the top menu and click Image > Image Size. Enter your desired ppi, such as 300 ppi. You can also adjust the size while retaining your chosen resolution.
3. Use the Crop Tool: The Crop tool allows you to shape your picture as desired. Many overlook the width and height options available under the top menu, which are extremely useful. If you need an exact measurement, enter the desired width and height immediately after selecting the Crop tool. Then, make your crop by dragging diagonally with your mouse. This method ensures precise measurements without hassle.
4. Explore Automatic Adjustments: In the top menu, select Image > Adjustments to explore automatic options like levels, contrast, and color adjustments. After experimenting with these, you can refine your edits for a polished finish. Additionally, try Image > Adjustments > Shadow/Highlight (or Variations) for a surprising array of preset options.
These basic steps are just the beginning. Photoshop offers endless variations and choices that can elevate your editing beyond the basics, opening up a universe of possibilities.
The challenge will be tearing yourself away from the artistic potential that lies within Photoshop CS.
