Some projects call for black-and-white photos; others work better with color images. But for certain projects, nothing can beat a black-and-white photo that you custom colorize. In this tutorial, you'll learn two helpful techniques for adding hues to grayscale photos using Adobe Photoshop. One technique works well when you're adding a uniform color across an area, while the second, more subtle, method lets you paint varying color within the same area. Both approaches preserve the texture of the original photo, creating a realistic color photo from a black-and-white original.
