Turn a day shot into a night photo using Photoshop

Adobe Photoshop CS6 comes with many great features, let me show you how to turn a daylight photo into a photo that looks like it's been taken at evening, sundown or at night with only a click.

Open a photo taken at day light.

Click the Create a new Color Lookup adjustment layer button.

If you don't see the Color Lookup window, click Windows in the menu and choose Adjustments.

A new adjustment layer has been created.

In the new window click Load 3D LUT ...

... and choose Crisp_Warm.look.

Colors on the photo are now much warmer looking.

Now choose Crisp_Winder.look ...

... and photo now feels colder.

Now choose NightFromDay.CUBE ...

... and your day shot turned into a night photo.

To achieve that evening photo look, do the following:

Reduce the Opacity of the adjustment layer ...

... and set the blending mode to Overlay.

The photo looks now like it has been taken at the end of the at a sundown.
