Selective colour

0:03 Selective colour · see the starting image
Choose a colour family, then change its hue, saturation and brightness.

0:08 Shift the selected red family
The red patches move towards a neighbouring hue; other colours respond less.

0:15 Quiet the selected colour
Saturation reduces colour intensity in the same family.

0:22 Brighten the selected family
Brightness changes that range while the other hue settings stay.

0:30 Show smoothing and neutral protection
These refine transitions and keep low-colour areas out of the adjustment.

0:36 Protect more near-neutral colour
Raise the threshold and compare subdued areas with the stronger red patches.

0:43 Bypass only this tool
Compare the same photograph at the same zoom. The settings are retained.

0:50 Restore the selective correction
A colour family is global; use a mask when only one object should change.

0:56 Reset and compare the starting state
Only this tool returns to its starting state. Other edits stay.
