Aim: I wanted to go minimalist and focus mainly on the focal point of the photo which are the petals. I liked the texture of the petals but also the way the colors work together and against the surface they are on.

 

Critique: I wish I could have gotten a more vibrant petal that was really bright to drastically offset the table and the creme petal

How to make the effect of vintage photo?

1. Open the photo.

2.Curves Image Adjustment

First thing we’re going to do is go to Image > Adjustment > Curves.

3.Add a Gradient Map.

Now go to Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Gradient Map. Click the gradient editor and choose the Blue, Yellow, Blue gradient preset. Check the Reverse option.

4.Reduce the Opacity of the Gradient Map Layer

In the Layers Panel, drop the Opacity of the Gradient Map layer down to 30%.

4.Add a Curves Adjustment Layer

Go to Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Curves. Make sure this layer is under the Gradient Map layer that we created in Step 3.

5.Add an Inner Shadow Layer Style

By default, in Photoshop, the photo you use will be opened as the Background layer and this layer will be uneditable (denoted by a padlock icon). In the Layers Panel, double-click on the Background layer and click OK to unlock it. Next, go to Layer > Layer Style > Inner Shadow. Set the blend mode:colour burn, distance:0, choke:20 and size:250.

6. Add a Gradient Overlay Layer Style

This is the final step. Go to Layer > Layer Style > Gradient Overlay. Change the Style to Radial and use the Black, White gradient preset. Set them to blend mode:overlay and opacity: 20.

7. Done but if you want the effect is to be on your favourite colour,use can use gradient map to select the colour gradient that you want.

The focal point of this image is the center of the thistle. The spiny nature of this plant, as well as the way it fills the entire photograph, create a lot of visual interest.
