In this tutorial, we will learn how to make a beautiful background in a photo.

It often happens that the model herself in the photo is very beautiful in a festive elegant dress, and the background behind her is gray and monotonous and such a background spoils the whole festive mood.

For this tutorial, I took a photo of a cute girl in a princess outfit.

Selecting an object in Photoshop

Picture-in-Picture effect

"For me, there is nothing more interesting than studying a complex effect and finding a way to get it in no more than 60 seconds."

A short reference.

Skott Kelbi is Editor-in-Chief of Photoshop User, Mac Design Magazne and President of the National Association of Photoshop Professionals, and publishes and delivers training courses. Author of such books as "Tricks and Secrets of Working in Photoshop 7", A Guide to Processing Digital Photos in Photoshop "," Photoshop CS Expert Tips "," Digital Photography "and others.

However, the book was written only at the dawn of the release of the first version of Photoshop CS (the last version of Photoshop before CS was Photoshop 7).

So, the urgency of updating these lessons is clearly overdue. I certainly won't take this liberty, but some of the lessons can be interpreted.

In one of his books, Scott Kelby described an interesting technique - the "picture in picture" effect.

The viewer's attention is drawn to a part of the photograph by creating a new "shot" in the photograph by applying selection of an object in photoshop... This applies a filter to the rest of the photo, but makes it fully visible.

Here's what I got from this tutorial.

Many alchemists have spent their entire lives on endless experiments in search of the "philosopher's stone", never getting what they wanted.

Many sages and poets chanted and cursed gold:

“One of the properties of gold is that its contemplation gives light to the eyes and joy to the heart, the other is that it makes a person courageous and strengthens the mind, the third is that it increases the beauty of the face, illuminates youth and removes old age, fourth, that that it increases pleasure and makes it more valuable in the eyes of people.

A short introduction to the lesson.

“... And over the peaks of the Caucasus

The exile of paradise flew by:

Under him Kazbek, like the edge of a diamond,

Shone with eternal snows ... "

M.Yu. Lermontov.

All of you are probably familiar with the unfinished painting of the famous artist MA Vrubel "Flying Demon".

The snow-capped peaks of the mountains, a stormy river are clearly visible against the background, the Demon is dressed in a brown tunic, tied with a belt.

To connect the plugin to the graphics editor, double-click the installation file, which can be downloaded from the developer's website, and follow the step-by-step instructions.

Add effects to the picture you can use components that do not require installation. These include brushes, shapes, gradients, patterns, styles, and actions. The Photoshop brush is a small file with the abr extension. To use the new brush downloaded from the design site, turn on the Brush tool, open the brushes palette and call the menu by clicking on the button in the upper right corner of the palette.

Call the menu in the same way as when installing the brush, and select the Load Shapes option. The shapes file has the csh extension.

Loading a gradient or pattern isn't too different from adding a shape in Photoshop. In order to be able to open a new gradient, turn on the Gradient Tool. The gradient file can be recognized by the grd extension.

To load a new pattern into Photoshop, turn on the Paint Bucket Tool and select the Pattern option in the Options bar under the main menu. This will give you access to the Patterns palette where you can add a new pattern or set of patterns by applying the Load Patterns option from the palette menu. The pattern file has the pat extension.

Layer Styles give you the ability to quickly apply an effect to an image and can be loaded with any tool turned on. You need to call the menu using the button in the upper right corner of the styles palette and select the Load Styles option. Style files have the asl extension.

Effects include actions that record the sequence of applying various Photoshop tools. To load a new action, use the Load Actions option from the Actions palette menu and select a file with the atn extension. If you want to apply an effect to an image using an action, select the name of the sequence of actions you are interested in from the list that can be seen in the palette, and click on the Play button.
