I’ve been doing some thinking and have concluded that video is the future. While I absolutely love photography and will never give it up, I think it would only be prudent for me to immerse myself in video as much as possible. I’ve been taking and editing video for almost five years, so I almost […]

If you’re the average Adobe Photoshop user, you’ve probably never heard of erodible brush tips before. Heck, you probably hardly even use the Brush Tool.

It’s one of those things that you never knew you’d enjoy, but after capturing a few videos, you find yourself scouring the web for anything and everything relating to the topic. This was me about four years ago. I was really into it, then I got […]

In today’s post, I’ll be continuing on with the project I began a while back. The goal here is to take a regular portrait photo of a young girl and funnel the natural surrounding light towards her eyes. I’d like to brighten them to give her face an overall sense of excitement and happiness. If […]

I could probably set up a site that contains just information on how to customize and use brushes in Adobe Photoshop. Seriously, the topic is endless.

Instances frequently arise when you make a selection in Adobe Photoshop and apply an adjustment layer to it.
