Recipe:

Lab with curve adjustments then convert back to RGB conversion
(details here: http://kyleheppphotography.com/2009/02/25/photoshop-tips-for-photographers-converting-to-lab-mode-for-vivid-colors/)

  1. Pool Party – Make the blue curve not an S but an upside down U – 70%
  2. Flare Up Golden – warmness, 82%, flare up – 100%
  3. Get Faded Winter – 50%
  4. Can O’ Whoopass – invert mask so effect is showing through on thewhole photo and reduce opacity to 30%

*This recipe works best when there is one very strong light source in the photo!

    Kyle,

    I love the photo and the colors! the whole photo just pops!

    I do have a question though, is there anyway you can put up that link to the lab color conversion up again because I would love to try it but the link you have up isn’t working

    Thanks,
