Every amateur photographer was sometimes upset to find that a photograph of a beautiful landscape was not so beautiful: fuzzy outlines, color noise … Many of these errors can be removed using the graphics editor Adobe Photoshop.

Instructions
Step 1
Open the photo with Photoshop.
Step 2
Copy the layer by pressing Ctrl + J. Do not forget: always make all changes on a new layer - if the adjustment was unsuccessful, you can delete the layer and try again. This will not affect the main image. Take a close look and decide what flaws you would like to save this photo from. For example, the color of the image is not very good - there are too many yellow tints. You can use different methods to change the color scheme. For example, press Ctrl + U and use the sliders to change the brightness, saturation and lighting parameters. Or use the combination Ctrl + B - this is how the color balance settings are called. By changing the values of the color levels, you change the color of the image. However, to correct the color tone of a given photo, it is better to apply a special photo filter. From the main menu choose Image, then Adjusments and Photo Filter. Using the selection method, find the most successful filter from the proposed list. In this case it is Cooling Filter (80).
Step 3
Note the slightly blurred outlines in the photo. To fix this flaw, make a copy of the edited layer with Ctrl + J. From the main menu, select Filter, then Other and High Pass. Set to about 3 pixels.
Step 4
Apply Overlay Blending Mode to this layer. The picture is clearer. Merge the layers by pressing Ctrl + E or choosing Layer and Merge Down from the main menu.
Step 5
On the right side, around a beautiful underwater plant, we got white highlights, which, frankly, do not decorate the photo. They can be removed using the Clone Stamp Tool. Press the alt="Image" key and left-click on the area next to the highlight. After that, move the cursor over the exposed area - it is replaced by the pattern along which the cross moves. When moving to another area, select a new pattern, which will replace the unsuccessful part of the image. The more carefully you choose the background to replace, the more realistic the photo will become.
