What’s Your Play no 60

I’m late playing along with Laura at Dolce Pics but I wanted to get it in anyway…
Here’s her before of this blue smoke.

And here’s what happened (per Mr. Monk).
I boosted the color slightly, then I inverted the photo. Image>Adjustments>Invert.
The background color was changed to white and the blue was changed to a rose color (colors across from the color wheel of each other).
But green is my favorite color so to get green smoke, I made a new layer, filled the color in with a green then selected “Color” on the layers palette. Voila, instant green smoke.
I know this is basic stuff for photographers out there but it was surely fun for me! See what others did at Laura’s place.











I originally processed this as a deep green on black. I guess we think similarly.
Thanks for also posting your step-by-step instructions. Awesome!
Very cool!
