Sunset has a special light that makes really beautiful landscapes, full of warm shades of red and orange. Unfortunately photos can’t always capture the beauty of such an inspiring moment, but you can always rely on Photoshop to lend you a hand with that. Here’s how to fix your sunset photos to make them look as beautiful as the real thing.
1. Open your photo, click on New Adjustment Layer and select Gradient on the drop-down menu.
2. Click on the gradient bar and you’ll open the Gradient Editor. Now we’re going to change the colors of the gradient.
3. Double click on the small squares highlighted on the image and you’ll open Photoshop’s color picker. Select a bight red for the square on the left, and a warm yellow for the one on the right.
4. Now change the adjustment layer’s blending mode to Overlay…
5. …and lower its opacity a bit, until you like the result.
6. Here’s your brand new sunset picture!
