Throughout Project 2B, I experienced Photoshop's unique in developing colours from the black and white portrait. It's fascinating, and I had a lot of fun picking and masking, refining, and getting the correct colour for the portrait. The recoloring process was first challenging, but thankfully we had the tutorial guidelines provided to help the process go smoothly. When I tried on the task, it appeared to be a struggle because it contains many details that make the image appear believable and stunning.

The most difficult component of this task, in my view, is refining the hair, particularly the girl's hair. Because hair includes many details, it took a long time to sit in front of the laptop, busy exploring the 'wonderful' refine edge brush tool. Despite having a painful neck while focusing on the task, I felt delighted and valuable since fresh knowledge had been implanted into my small brain!💡🧠
