How to add global and local edits to your sports photos

What you’ll need

  • Camera Raw’s Edit Panel

  • High Pass Filter

  • Radial Gradient

  • Blending Modes

  • Layer Masks

BEFORE

1 Global adjustment Observe Camera Raw’s histogram as you boost Exposure (+1.85) to avoid clipping. Lift Shadows (+23) to reveal more detail and increase Whites (+10) to brighten white areas of the livery. Push Contrast (+10), Clarity (+18), Vibrance (+20) and Saturation (+25) to add punch.

2 Local adjustments Select Masking and choose Radial Gradient. Click and drag over your image to make a bounding box; move and resize it accordingly to fit it over your subject. Uncheck Show Overlay and increase Exposure (+0.35) to pull your subject from the background.
