tutorial <3
To make a picture look like a summer day you first must duplicate the background then Filter> Sharpen> Sharpen once then fade it too 50 % (Edit> Fade)
Next using the blur tool blur the edges of the picture or the hair on a subject in a portrait
Repeat step one but fade it too 15-30 %
After that you must use the gradient tool using any two colors preferably warm colors then select the option screen above the layers and put it on opacity of 95 %
At the end adjust the contrast and brightness as you desire and apply a photo filter (Layer> New adjustment Layer> Photo Filter and select yellow)
the end.

I love these pictures, i especially love the summer look to the picture. It looks great! I also love the sun in the background, it really makes you look at the foreground of the picture. Great job!
