Lesson 03c: Key Points

Hue/Saturation

  • Hue/Saturation lets you edits a range of colors independently from or in combination with luminosity values.
  • The Hue slider lets you send your image right around the 360 degrees of the Photoshop color wheel.
  • The Saturation slider allows you to mute colors (desaturate) or intensify colors.
  • The Lightness slider is not commonly used. Luminosity values are best modified through the Levels, Curves or Shadows/Highlights commands.
  • Hue/Saturation lets you modify specific hues, say only the greens or only the blues.
  • After you select a color range from the drop-down list, you can click out in the image itself to shift the range of color that will be affected.
  • Hue/Saturation can be found in the Images > Adjustments menu.
