Photoshop Tools

We discussed about the different tools in Photoshop. At the laboratory, I encounter some problems in VegStart.psd. While I am trying to trace the image by the Quick Selection Tool, I can’t control the brush. The line is like flying away from the point that I want it to be. I just found out that I’m working with a different layer.

Scenario: I am tracing the the tomato but the layer visible is carrot. That's why when I tried to make changes in the tomato, there's no effect on the image. So make sure that you have selected the right layer before doing something on the image.

I used the Magic Background Eraser Tool to erase the white background immediately with just a click. After that, the Background Eraser Tool helped me to erase unwanted or hard edges on the image.

As you can see on this image, there's a drop shadow effect.

This can be manipulated by clicking the fx icon. After getting the right effect, I decided to copy the effects then paste it to other image layers so that they will have the same effect.

The outcome:

I also had some problems with the FlowerStart.psd regarding the colour adjustments. I tried using Colour Replacement Tool and manipulate the colours until I get the colour that I want.

The outcome:

Though I wasn't able to produce the same effect, in somehow it looks the same.
