Assignment description: For this assignment we had to go online and find tutorial regarding photo shop cs6.  After we had found a tutorial we had to follow the instructions and create that effect.

Link to reflection tutorial~http://www.webdesign.org/photoshop/photoshop-cs6-tutorials/how-to-create-stunning-reflections-in-photoshop.22205.html

Link to color splash tutorial~http://www.iceflowstudios.com/2012/tutorials/color-splash-effect-in-photoshop-cs6/

What I learned: Both of these tutorials were very helpful in furthering my photo shop skills.  When doing the reflection tutorial I learned how to use multiple layers and the gradient tool to create a reflection.  Before this tutorial I would have simply adjusted the opacity when attempting to create a reflection.  Using the gradient tool to make the faded effect makes it look more like an actual reflection.  In doing the color splash tutorial I learned about the color range select tool.  This tool allows you to select one color in the photo.  For example, the red in the above picture was selected using this tool.  I also learned how to use black and white brushes to tweak the color of the final picture.
