Lime Photo
Step 1
Open up a photo of a lime:
2. Step 2
Start by cutting out the lime. To do this, select it using the lasso tool or pen tool, and then paste your
selection onto a new layer.
Then create a new layer beneath your lime cutout layer called ‘background’. Apply a radial gradient
ranging from 292C2F to 0F1010. This is the first step to making your photo more intense, by
positioning your photo in front of a dark background you’re giving it more contrast, and making the
bright colors of your photo stand out more.
3. Step 3
Now create a new layer below your lime layer and above your background layer called ‘background
highlights’. Create a couple of radial gradients ranging from white to transparent behind each piece
of lime. Then reduce the opacity of this layer to 40%.
4. Step 4
Now apply a color overlay to your background highlights layer (color: 83BFDE).
5.
6. Step 5
Now create a new layer called ‘background shadows’ and apply a black to transparent radial
gradient beneath each lime piece, and between the two pieces.
7. Step 6
Now duplicate your lime photo layer and change the duplicate’s blend mode to ‘hard light’. Reduce
it’s layer opacity to 50%. Then duplicate your hard light layer and change the blend mode to ‘soft
light’, keeping the opacity at 50%. Then merge down both of your duplicate layers with your original
lime layer, by pressing option+e twice.
8. Step 7
Now go to image>adjustments>hue/saturation and apply the settings shown below:

10. Step 8
Now go to filter>sharpen>sharpen, to emphasize the details of your lime.
Step 9
Now go to image>adjustments>color balance. Make the adjustments shown below to reduce the
green in your photo and give a more yellowy tint to compliment your gray background.

12. Step 10
Now create a new top layer called ‘burn layer’. Select a large, soft black paintbrush, blend mode:
‘color burn’, hardness: 0%, opacity 10%. Paint over the darker green areas of your limes to bring out
the shadows. I reduced my burn layer’s opacity to 50% eventually in order to make the effect a little
more subtle.
13. Step 11
Now create a new layer called ‘orange burn’. You want the edges of the yellow inner part of the lime
to burn to a deep orange color. Change your brush color to orange (FF6C00) and use a medium size
soft brush to brush around the edges of your yellow area. Then reduce your brush size, and brush
even closer to the edge of the yellow, making this area more intense with color.
Finally, be sure to change the blend mode of this layer to ‘color burn’. This will really bring out the
orange color of this layer, and won’t let your of your orange brush marks overlap into your dark
background.
14. Step 12
Now create a new layer called ‘white highlights’. Use a white paintbrush to paint in the highlights in
the yellow area. Use a very small brush to repeatedly brush over your white edge and thin white
lines. Then enlarge your brush and paint over the light areas of your green lime skin. If any of your
brush marks go over into your dark background, use your magic wand tool to select outside of your
lime shapes, then return to your white highlights layer and hit delete.
Finally, I reduced this layer’s opacity to 40% to make the highlights more subtle and realistic.
15. And We’re Done.
And there you have it! Very simple photo manipulation, to create a truly intense end result. If you
compare the before and after images below, you can see how these easy techniques make a real
difference to your images.
