thank you! man....it took FOREVER to come up with a combo of blues that worked well together. nothing too bright and nothing to garish. :)

1: take a nice photo. :)
2: adjust levels, color, and contrast balances in photoshop.
3: play with the color balance. i used the lasso tool to isolate sections that i wanted to change the color of.
4: use A LOT of layers and opacity adjustments.

basically, that's it. this isn't so much a photo manipulation per se than just playing with colors. i think the important thing is to decide what part of the image you want to emphasize. here, i wanted to keep the "wet look" and adjusted colors to enhance that. i could've just as easily "flattened" the wet textures and came away with solid panels of color. depends on everyone's personal tastes. :)
