sorry everyone was called to CA unexpectedly and didn't get started on time, how to change colours on a photo using layers
well it seems to be letting me add photos now go figure.
the car I changed to blk and white, then new layer went into Topaz changed colour again then gave it a painterly effect, the tree I went into On One effects used Firenza to give warm glow then a warm filter light saturation and a polarizer,
on the Grand Canyon little adjustment in photoshop, new layer went into Topaz texures added some depth to colours then added the cloud texture, new layer and went to On One to add the border,
Hope I am explaining what I am trying to say

Thank you Catgirl for hosting! Great subject. Love your examples!

I tried changing the color of the Egret using Elements. I captured the bird with the selections tool, clicked on invert selection, put a gradient filter, over the entire picture and then moved the bird layer above the gradient layer. Not the best looking change, but it give you an idea of what can be done using layers.

Hi, Cat! Thanks for hosting. This is an area of consternation for me...Lots to still learn! So it will take me some painful learning time in photoshop -that which I've put off....I do have other means to change

colors and effects on my Mac. and with Photomatrix so I guess I could pull it off that way. Photoshop is another word to me! So much to learn, for sure!

Interesting Flamingo/Egret, Sharon! Got to find some time to play and learn more...Thanks for including the directions, very helpful! Wrote down the directions for when I get the chance to try!

Looking forward to giving it a fling! :)

Your color layering brings out the feather details nicely Sharon.
