How can I do this...? (before and after)

[Prissy]

Can I get this done without using Adobe Lightroom? Can some one teach me how? Thanks

Looks like Duotone mode
create the image in grayscale> then switch it to duotone add a blue and black see attachment (the blue could be any number of shades this was done in 2 minutes, maybe less

Looks pretty good iDad.

Play around with adding masked curves adjustment layers and painting in light and dark areas for the lighting effects.

This can be achieve in Photoshop

Open Image file in Photoshop
Press Ctrl + U
or
IMAGE > ADJUSTMENT > HUE/ SATURATION dialogue box select COLORIZE ( As per attachment )
Slowly Move Hue slider towards Left/Right till Image is in your desired Colour
Play with Saturation and Lightness as desired
it is so simple

Great tips guys! But do you guys see the detail defereces on the ground (before/after)? Should I use the Sharpen tool? Or is there better way to do it?

 

[iDad]

it does look like detail increased sharpening tool may do it maybe even adding a little noise?(maybe) or play around with shadow/highlight filter

Filter --> Sharpen --> Unsharp Mask should work well also, if you need to you can use it on a duplicate layer and mask it to only certain areas of the image.

I played with it a little... this is what I got by using Hue/Saturation, Curves, Color Balance, and Vibrance adjustment layers, plus an Unsharp Mask to the image.

Not Duo-tone...looks sort of like one though! : )

I did this in 10 minutes using rough selections and "replace color" (Image/adjustments/replace color).
