to increase the brightness to 55-65, and
change the contrast to a number between
10 and 15.
Amaro has a yellow tint to it, and that
is the next step. Add a new layer in the

Layers palette. This can be done in one
of two ways. Click on the arrow at the
top right side of the layers window and
select "new layer," or click on the icon at
the bottom of the layer palette that notes

Instagram images are square, so start with cropping.

Adding a yellow tint is part of the look of the popular Instagram filter, Amaro.

New Layer when your mouse rolls over it.
Fill this layer with a pale, creamy yellow
(similar to: R:255, G:245, B:216) with the
Paint Bucket tool.
Once you've filled this layer, change
the mode setting at the top of the Layers
palette from Normal to Multiply. You've
now given the image a soft yellow tone.
Just a few more steps and your filter
style will be done. In the Layers menu,
ensure your photograph layer is selected
for the next step. To adjust the Levels of
the original image, select Image > Adjustments > Levels. In the Channel list, select
Blue as the active channel to edit. At the
bottom of this menu is a section labeled
"Output Levels." Change the left-hand
number from 0 to 115. Keep the righthand value at 255. This will give a blue
tint to your image.
Now, to fade down the image some,
remove a little bit of the contrast. Go
to Image > Adjustments > Brightness/
Contrast and move the slider for the Contrast amount to -10. By decreasing this
value after the blue color adjustment has
been done, it will alter the image in a different manner than if you were to not
have adjusted the contrast at all in an earlier step.
As you can tell, adding yellows and
blues and decreasing the contrast are the
main ingredients of this filter. Next, adjust
the Color Balance values. Image > Adjustments > Color Balance will bring up the
new window. Be sure to click on the preview box before beginning work. In the
bottom settings for the Tone Balance, select
Midtones and check the Preserve Luminosity box. Move the slider to the right to
increase the red, green and blue. Adjust the
values to what looks good to your eye and
aim for around 60-28-32 for the top Color
Levels amounts.
Lastly, add the vignette effect by using
a Layer filter. At the bottom of the Layer
