First things first: don´t copy this tutorial take the idea. What I wanted to do is to enhance the colors and give it a warmth hue.
How I achieve it: with some coloring layers.
Look at your base and think what it needs, it´s depends of course on your idea and the image.
For this twilight cap I want to reduce the blues and enhance the reds,
to the tut!

1#. Take your base and prepare it: when you use coloring layers in order to avoid darkness is better to duplicate your base and set to
screen whatever times you need. I do it once leave it at 50% opacity but it depends on your image.

2#.Add this gradient by [info]oxoniensis and set it to multiply 100%

3#. Duplicate your base once, drag it to the top and set it to soft light 21% opacity. This is to increase contrast
