Photo Color Cross Processing in Photoshop: Dream Big Actions Volume 1

Taking pictures is fun. With the camera gone digital, you can snap at almost everything that catches your eyes without having to worry about running out of film. And here's another plus point of keeping digital image..you can explore the much more interesting world of photo cross-processing in Photoshop (provided that you have Photoshop). Sometimes, although your composition is great, the coloring of your photo is just average, and doesn't evoke the kind of feeling you wish to convey to the audience. Well, that is why I have created this free coloring action set. I've decided to call it the 'Dream Big Action: Volume 1' because you should always dream big and there might be possibility for Volume 2. The set contains 5 actions and you can see the preview result of each action below. So, run these actions in Photoshop and start turning your dull photo into something marvelous. You still have a long way to become a professional photographer but at least you can impress your friends now with these unique colorings.
