Create a Wonderful Midnight Photo Manipulation in Photoshop

Step 57

I duplicated the Broken Glass layer and set it to Soft Light with Opacity and Fill at 80%.

Step 58

Now we are going to fix general lights and shadows. Create a new layer above all layers and set it to Overlay.

Go to Edit > Fill > 50% Gray. Name the layer 'D&B'. Use the Burn Tool to add shadows and the Dodge Tool to add lights. My settings are: Range: Midtones; Exposure 10%. For the highlights I changed the Rage to Highlight. Below you can see my Dodge & Burn layer and the result.

Step 59

Now we want to add a bit more of light around. Create a new layer above all layer and name it 'General Light'. Set it to Soft Light. Pick the color #d7ebff and paint some light outside the window. Below you can see my layer set to Normal and then the result with the blend Soft Light.

Step 60

Let's bring out some details. Make a stamp of all layers (Click CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+E). Name the layer 'High Pass'. Go to Filter > Other > High Pass and put 10px Then set the layer to Overlay.

Step 61

Add a Vibrance Adjustment Layer with these settings:

Vibrance +30
Saturation -5.

Step 62

Now that the scene is done we can work on the hair. We will do it in several layers. I did this job in four steps. Sometimes you need more layers to create hair. Create a new layer above all layers and name it 'Hair 1'. Pick the color #0d083e and paint a kind of base. Use a soft small brush. Usually we have to build the base with a 100% brush. But since hair is in the light the result would be fake.
