Deke uses the Dehaze filter in Camera Raw to correct uneven shadow detail in a family portrait.
Deke shows you how to blend the cast shadow of an object into any new background.
This week, Deke shows how to turn an ordinary portrait into a line drawing. If nature didn't endow you with the ability to draw, Photoshop is the way to go.
This week I show you how to turn an untreated studio photograph into a high key, high contrast image with ultra-black shadows but nary a clipped highlight.
This week's 7-minute video shows you how to isolate the highlights and shadows from one image and blend them with those of another. It's quick, easy, and effective.
