01. Add Color Lookup layer

Open the 'color_lookup_before.jpg' start image via File>Open. Next, click on the Adjustment layer icon and select Color Lookup in the drop-down menu. All

the options to adjust the colors in the image will appear in a separate properties dialog box below.

02. Change the colorsThere are three different tabs from which you can

select the alternative color effects. To give the image a vintage look, switch to the Abstract tab. Then, from the drop-down menu, select Gold-Crimson. You can experiment with alternative effects depending on

how you want your final image to appear.

03. Add a vintage effect

Next, duplicate the Background Layer and label it 'Filter effects'. Right-click the Filter effects layer and select

Convert to Smart Object. This means that you can add multiple filter effects in a non-destructive way. To add a vignette, go to Filter>Lens Correction and switch to the Custom tab. Under Vignette, change Amount to -60 and

Midpoint to +40. Click OK.

04. Add some grainFinally, to add some grain, go to Filter>Filter

Gallery and under the Textures menu, select Grain. Increase Intensity to 20 and Contrast to

60. Keep Grain Type on Regular. Click OK to apply the effect, then save the image as a PSD

file to keep the layers intact.
