Selective Sepia Effect in PhotoshopSelective-sepia

“In this Photoshop tutorial, we are going to produce a selective sepia effect, i.e., we shall produce the sepia effect in some particular region in the image, leaving the rest of the picture as it is. This is relatively harder than what we’d done the last time in which we brought about the sepia in the picture as a whole. The tricky part here is the careful and precise selection that we must learn to make and we’ll be using the smartest method of selection for it. Other than that it’s really just a good old easy to do and remember kind of tutorial.” This is an intermediate level Photoshop tutorial.
