Technique 27: Recoloring with Gradients
Save Time By
Applying a gradient map
Using blending modes
In Photoshop, a gradient is a smooth transition from one color to another, or from a color to transparency. For instance, gradients can contain one color that fades to transparency, two colors such as black and white where the transition area between the black and white are various shades of gray, or many colors that blend from one color to the next.One way that you can change the color of an image in Photoshop is by using gradient maps. Gradient maps recolor an image by looking at the image as if it were set in grayscale mode, finding the lightest and darkest pixels in the image, and then assigning colors (or mapping them) to the pixels based on the lights and darks.This technique focuses on recoloring images by using gradient maps. First, you adjust image color by applying a gradient map directly to an image. You can check out the results and see if they’re something that you think you could use. Then, you take a look at applying gradient maps to layers and using blending modes to blend image pixels. You might be surprised at the sometimes subtle, oft times wacky results that can happen.
