  • Vibrant Colours

    Is there a way to get more vibrant colours in Photoshop?

    My camera outputs photos that seems rather dull/pale/bland, even on sunny days, with great direct lighting.

    Any suggestions?

    Compare my photo to this photo taken by Charin De Silva in the same spot with similar lighting:

        Thanks Clovis.

        Radomir, what do I do after I download and extract it?
        When I double click, it just opens Photoshop.

          Go easy on it though Will...over 20 points saturation causes there to be color blotches.

            Will, extract it somewhere, then load the action by doing the following:

            1) Open PS

            2) If you don't have the Actions window open, open it by going to the Window menu, then choose "Actions"

            3) In the Actions window, click on the little arrow in the right corner, and choose "Load Actions" when the menu drops down.

            4) Navigate to the folder where you extracted it.


            Once you have the action loaded, open your favorite photo, and then in the Actions menu, expand the "10DFinishers" action, and for start, pick "10D Subtle Col" (just highlight it). Then click the "Play" button at the bottom of that window.

            That's it.

            HTH.
