Using the Selective Color Tool (LCH Mode only)

The

Selective Color Selective Color

Selective Color tool is used to perform color

alteration to a specific color range without affecting

the other colors in an image. This is done either to

increase the visual impact of a color or to completely

change the relationship of the targeted color(s) with

In the example here, we want to increase the

saturation of the sky and change the boat color but

leave everything else untouched.
