In this tutorial Blake Rudis shows how to colour match images in a composite photo. For example, if you cut out a person or object from one photo and bring it into another photo for editing, very likely the colour tones of the different images will not be the same. It will be necessary to give them the same colour tone to blend into the composite harmoniously.

Use a Neural Filter to Color Match a Composite Photo

If you have PS Elements you only need to watch the first 4 minutes. if you have the full PS, then you can watch the whole video to see how to use the "Harmonize Neural Filter".

Kind regards

Chris, thanks for sharing this tutorial! This is one my favorite filters in Photoshop.

Here is an alternative for Elements users. It doesn’t have all the bells and whistles of the Harmonize Neural filter in Photoshop though.

In PSE 13, Adobe introduced Photomerge Compose (Expert Edit>Enhance>Photomerge>. . .). Then, in PSE 14, they enhanced this feature and moved it to Guided Edit>Photomerge> . . .

Once you create the composite, you can use Auto Match Color Tone. It will match the tones and colors of the pasted image with the background image. You can also do some fine-tuning by adjusting the sliders.
