Selective Color Options - The Quick Fix for Washed Out Photos
If you have Photoshop, (I have the CS version), you have the ability to improve the look of a washed out photo with ease. Using the Selective Color Options from the 'new adjustment layer' icon, (the one at the bottom that looks like a black and white full moon), you can easily change this:
To this:
Open the Selective Color Options box:
Clicking on the 'Colors' drop down box, you will see the choices of Whites, Neutrals, and Blacks toward the bottom of the drop down. To get rid of the washed out grayish look, click on Neutrals, then adjust the 'Black' slider you see above. Then go to the drop down box again, selecting Blacks, and again, using the black slider seen above, adjust the color. Follow once again with choosing Whites in the drop down box.
Voila! A quick and simple fix!
Now your photos, whether for the MLS, your blog, or your website, will have more WOW factor!
