The key is to find a good separation between yellow and green in your photo.  Easier said than done, right?  Well, there is a tool in Photoshop called Selective Color, and it is the most surgical approach to modifying color at our disposal.  That's what I am going to show you today!  The secret sauce of yellow-green color separation. 00:00 Selective Color in Action! 01:17 Selective Color Explained 02:53 The Sliders Explained 04:59 Foliage Colors Targeted 08:44 Why YELLOW for GREEN? 12:25 The Foliage Actions 15:00 Your turn to Experiment!  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
