How did you get the effect of the different colours? I've just found the graduated filter in lightroom but i don't know how to apply lots of different colours...
@stanners72 I agree - I think Photoshop or Elements is a better bet for this effect. I'm not saying it's impossible in Lightroom but I'd have to think about how to do it
Lightroom lets your influence existing colors but not to add color. You can use another program to paint in color like photoshop elements or another online editing program to do that. I don't know off hand what other programs will let you paint. Maybe someone can point you in the right direction.
@smevvy On PSE when you select the gradient tool you have various colour combinations which you can select. I have never used Lightroom to be honest so could not say how/if you can do it sorry
you just create a new layer over the image use the gradient tool on that layer and set the layer to multiply then use the eraser tool on the overlaid image to erase the colour on the bits you don't want coloured :D
