Have you ever looked for a White Balance tool or Adjustment Layer in Photoshop? Were you shocked to find that there wasn’t one?
I, after 22 years of PS experience, am still quite shocked that there is no White Balance tool. We have tons of tools to control color in our images in Photoshop from Curves to Levels or HSL and Selective Color, but those aren’t tools that target White Balance specifically.
Sure, Lightroom and ACR have White Balancing tools, but there are times that you need that power in Photoshop. So where do you go? The answer lies in the Color Balance adjustment layer, but it’s not the easiest tool in the world to understand. Well, until today!
Today I will share how to use the Color Balance tool to Correct and Exaggerate the colors in your images.
Because you said Color Balance blends or bleeds over into the other colors, therefore the balancing act, when you showed your photo before Color Balancing it, you said, that the colors at first seemed separate from each other, and after Color Balancing you felt the warmth throughout your finished image, and it was the blending factor of Color Balance that did that for you.
