Emphasize Your Subject By Desaturating Color
I found myself desaturating colors to emphasize a subject, and put together a quick video on the technique. The goal of desaturating is the same - draw attention to the primary subject in my scene. Unlike my prior video using range masks, in this example global changes in the HSL panel (Hue, Saturation, and Luminance) have the most impact.
