An edit I did in the fall of 2020 of a photo I took in the summer of 2008 that I took 2 1/2 years to remember to upload. I suspect I used Luminar 4 for the editing process, but at this point I haven't the foggiest.
These are edits i did of the last shoot i did for an M3. Which is better edit one or two?

Which is better i cant decide.
This is my edit of my image Lost Balloons. To achieve this effect, what I first did to this image was use the crop tool to crop out any unnecessary space that was being wasted. This made the image more tidier in my eyes.
I then selected the area around the balloons by using the magic wand tool, and from the adjustment menu I desaturated the whole of the background. This made the bright balloons stand out on the dark background.
While the background was then selected by the magic wand tool I adjust the colour balance of the image. This created the blue, cold colour over the background, and made it a lot more interesting than black and white. What i adjusted the Colour balance to was Cyan -50, Magenta 15 and Yellow 0.
The final step to my edit was changing the balloons from red to yellow, I thought that the yellow stood out more than the red. To do this is firstly highlight the balloons with the magic want tool and then went into Hue and Saturation, I adjust the Hue to 47, Saturation to 49 and left the lightness on 0.
