WEEK TWO

In this class we looked at colour grading, using adjustment layers and using blending modes. 
By using the curves adjustment layer we were shown how to select the white-point balance most effectively either on a solid white surface or grey, and how to adjust the individual RGB layers.



Using the skew tool we were able to fix the perspective of the buildings followed by using the crop tool to tidy the edges. We then used colour range to enhance to shadows and brighten the colours of the image
For this image, we first adjusted the white point and black point balance using the curves layer on a separate layer, then we adjusted the red layer using curves again to make take some of the reddish tones out from the image.
