How do I make a fast rendering in Photoshop without render elements?

The work was done during the course EVA: effective visualization approach.
All images are based on photo references taken from public sources. The project is performed only for training and teaching 3d visualization skills and is published for educational purposes.

Have you ever had a situation where you didn't count render-elements, but just made a picture of your project (interior or exterior)?
Is it possible to process a picture in Photoshop in a couple of clicks? Yes, it is possible. It may not have the same great effect as the real post-processing, but the picture will be definitely better.

It should be noted that a bad renderer can not be corrected in Photoshop. But you can make a good render in Photoshop expressive easily.
So, let's get started.

We take the render and open it in Photoshop. The picture is faded, there is not enough contrast. But we will not use the usual tool "Brightness-Contrast". Instead, we assign the "Black and White" filter to the image layer and make the "Soft Light" layer blending mode.

In the same way, you can adjust the colors, for a more precise adjustment of our image.

In addition, we can check our shadows and highlights. If they are very bright or dark, with the eraser tool (in 30-40% mode), you can slightly correct these places. Remember that with the eraser we erase the "Black and White" layer

If we don't like the colors in terms of brightness, let's add an additional layer "Juicy". Let's raise the parameters a little bit.

See, in just a couple of minutes, we've got a pretty nice result.
Quick post-processing in Photoshop is ready.
Of course, it's better to do a more thorough processing of your renders. You can learn this by reading our blog or on courses: https://go.render.courses
