Creating center of interest

“

- [Instructor] The radial gradient tool is perfect for creating a center of interest in a photo. Activate the tool. Make an oval, and move it over the couple. Check the invert box so the adjustments are made outside the oval. Hide the tool overlay, and the mask, to see the effect. Move the exposure slider to the left to darken, or to the right to lighten the area. Increase the saturation to bring out the color in the shrub. Let's adjust the mask to include the dog. Show the tool overlay. Make it a little bigger. And now rotate it to include the dog's head. Hide the overlays so you can see the result.
