Rich Red Colouring

  1. Open up an image you would like to add a Rich Red Colouring to. You may use mine if you wish.

  2. Click the "Image" tab then select "Curves." Change the Output to 149 and the Input 118.
  3. Select the "Hue/Saturation" option under "Image" then "Adjustments." Adjust the Master Hue to +6 and the Master Saturation to +11.
  4. Select "Selective Colour" under "Image" then "Adjustments" and adjust the following:

    Reds:
    Cyan: +100
    Magenta: +15
    Yellow: +11
    Black: -20

    Greens:
    Cyan: -27
    Magenta: -12
    Yellow: +100
    Black: +80

  5. For the final touches, I've selected half of the tulip (using a 10 px feather; right-click and Feather) and desaturated it, (Image followed by Adjustments and Desaturate) and I've gone back to "Edit" and "Fade Desaturate" to fade the opacity to 80%. Without unclicking the selection, select the "Gaussian Blur" option under "Filters" and "Blur." Set the radius to 1px. I've set this texture on the "Screen" Blend Mode, and added some text. I've duplicated the original image layer and set the duplicate on the blend mode "Overlay" at a 60% opacity.
