In this Photoshop photo effects tutorial, we're going to learn how to colorize a photo using multiple colors. It's an effect I've seen used quite a bit in ads for photo printers and for color calibration software. The idea is simple. Take a single photo, divide it into multiple sections of equal size (usually four sections), then colorize each section using a different color, or a different shade of the same color, to create interesting results. With the photo printer ads, for example, each section of the photo is usually colorized using one of the four main colors of ink (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black). With the color calibration software ads, each section of the photo is tinted with a slightly different color to show how the same image can look different on different monitors when they're not properly calibrated. These are just two common examples of how this photo effect can be used, but you can colorize your image with whatever colors you like depending on the subject of your image and the mood or message you're trying to convey. Use reds, oranges and yellows to colorize an image of kids playing in the leaves in the Fall, or different shades of blue to colorize a cold, wintry landscape photo. Or colorize three of the four sections with the same color and use a different color to highlight one specific section of the photo. For such a simple effect, there's lots of different ways you can use it. Photoshop makes creating this effect incredibly easy. First, we'll divide our photo into four sections using guides, then we'll use several Hue/Saturation adjustment layers, as well as their layer masks, to colorize each section with a different color. When we're done with the initial effect, we'll see how we can use an additional Hue/Saturation adjustment layer to quickly change all four colors at once!
