+** color blend mode
+- changes color not brightness
+- a better way to change the color of say a green apple is hue saturation
+  1. create hue/saturation adjustment layer
+  2. change the hue
+  3. if any colors of the object are not getting hit properly expand the lower bar to cover those colors
+
+*** mask the adjustment layer
+- if it is affecting a part of the photo you don't want touched
+  1. select the mask
+  2. select the black color
+  3. blacken what you dont want affected
+
+*** color example
+[[file:../_share/data/piximperfect/photoshop/lesson05/example05.psd]]
+
+1. create a new layer
+   - name it 'color'
+   - change the blend mode from 'normal' to 'color'
+2. make sure you have the correct sampling size
+   - select eyedropper tool
+   - confirm the sample is 3x3 and current and below

+
+3. paint over the area you want to change
+   - select the brush
+   - hover the brush over the color area you want to sample
+   - hold the ALT/OPT button and press the mouse
+   - paint over that area in the layer mask
+4. if the changes are too intense, change the opacity
+5. brighten the image
+   - create a curves adjustment layer above the 'color' layer
+   - grab the slider and move it to the left
+   - right click on adjustment layer and scroll to where it says 'release clipping mask' so it will apply to all layers beneath it

+   - to invert the mask: press CMD+I
+   - paint white over the area you want the curves layer to apply to
