Author Having an photo in different shades of blue
Wes

Got a pretty simple question. I've seen pictures in the past on
websites where users have taken a picture and have that one picture in
all different shades of the same color and am curious how I would do
that in Photoshop.

For instance if I have a picture and I want that picture to be
different shades a blue.

Thank you in advance,

Wes, look into Image - Mode - Duotone (or monotone, duotone, tritone,
quadtone). You have to turn it into a greyscale first.

That's a direct and simple way, but gives no immediate control of the
individual color curves. Duo (tri, etc) works better.

umm if it's ALL blue why would I need to adjust the other colors?
I would also use levels to up the contrast a bit, color photo to BW usually
gives a flat look

Easiest thing in the world.

Pick the color using the color picker. Then, Edit->Fill, and in the Fill
dialog, choose Foreground color, Mode: Color.

You can also use the "Colorize" checkbox in the Image->Adjust->Hue and
Saturation dialog.
