Paint.NET :: Lighten And Darkening Specific Areas Correctly

Jun 6, 2008

I need to know the best way to lighten part of a picture without it being two-toned. An example of this is when I took a picture of someone inside a house.

The orange dress is vivid, and the white wall and door came out good also. The problem is that the lighting wasn't good enough to bring out the true skin tone of the person. So much so that the person's face could hardly be seen, and her neck and hands came out the same as her face also.

I tried to lighten her face by using the Ellipse in Tools>Adjustment>Brightness/Contrast making sure not to go outside the perimeter of the face. I then zoomed to 1600X and manually changed the rest of it a few pixels at a time by switching to the Rectangle in Tools . The result after more than an hour later was something that looked akin to pasting an egg in place of her face on the picture. It was grainy and looked ridiculous.

I don't want to lighten the whole picture because it ruins the true color of the dress, and not as important, the door and walls don't look as sharp and vivid either.

P.S. I would also like to know how to do the reverse; darken a specific area without the two-toned look.

GIMP :: Aerial Photo Of Island - Make Water Areas Black And Land Areas White

Jan 29, 2013

In the image below I have an aerial photo of an Island. I need to make it so as water areas are black and land areas are white (not greyscale) almost like a silhouette. My first plan was to draw round the island with a black paint brush and then use the "bucket fill" with a suitable threshold to fill all of the areas up to the black outline with black, however this doesn't work as the bucket fill either breaks through the black line or when I reduce the threshold, doesn't color the water areas solidly.

Photoshop :: Why No Lighten/darken Blending Modes In...

Mar 9, 2008

With PS CS, I have noticed in Lab color space the lighten and darken blending modes for layers are disable. Also, if an RGB picture uses them, they are converted to normal blending mode upon conversion to Lab. Any idea why this limitation? And any way to circumvent it?

AutoCad :: Lighten PDF Underlay

Apr 6, 2012

I haven't used PDF Underlays very much as we're always given CAD backgrounds. In this case, I used them to quickly put in since we won't get CAD files. However, they are scanned PDF's so they are essentially raster images. They have jagged lines, etc.

Is there a way to just lighten these when plotting so I can still use them as my background? or should I just bite the bullet and trace them to get actual ACAD lines to be able to control in plotting?

Photoshop :: How To Select The Right Areas

Apr 23, 2003

I have a gif image. It is a black and white outline of the state of New York. How do I select just the outside area to delete the background?

If I use the magic wand, It selects all the white. Then when I delete, it deletes the entire background and leaves only the black outline.

I want the black outline and the interior white area. How can I properly select this?

Photoshop :: Identifying Clipped Areas

Nov 6, 2013

What I want to be able to check is the areas of clipping in the shadows and highlights. Now I know Lightroom is very easy in the histogram, having a little warning button that will display when an area is off. What I've come up with so far for Photoshop is that there are only two tools, in the camera raw and in levels. Camera Raw is pretty self-explanitory, but I want to be able to check this in photoshop after I've done some work on the image. So I see that the levels tool you can click and hold on the triangle, and if you press the "Alt" key it will show you what areas are clipped. I'm not sure if I really understand it though, as it shows areas that aren't really clipped, e.g. a slightly darker area of sky is showing as light blue, but not a solid color, as being clipped. What is that?
 
I think that from the example above that say the reason the sky is showing a little cyan is that the red channel is being clipped in the dark sky only, and not the other channels. Do I need to be concerned about this for a good quality print? For best display on the web?

Photoshop :: Black Pixelated Areas In Photos

Apr 12, 2013

I just purchased a new computer which is running Windows 7 and has an AMD Radeon graphics card. I loaded my Photoshop CS4 on this new computer.  I previously had CS4 loaded on a Dell Inspiration laptop that died.  I never had any problems with CS4 on my laptop.  I have always used a working color profile of sRGB IEC61966-2.1 as that is the color profile that my digital camera uses. Now when I open photos in CS4 using this color profile, there are black pixelated areas on many of the photos.  I can get rid of this in two ways, 1. by dropping the saturation down to around -8 or 2.  changing my working space profile to Adobe RGB 1998 and then converting the documents color profile to the working space. I have to convert every photo that I bring in to Photoshop.Is the graphics card not compatible with CS4?

Photoshop :: Retouching Broad Gradated Areas?

Jul 18, 2012

I often find I need to remove something from a broad gradated area of an image, such as a bill board from a dusk sky.  I've always tried to clone the image out, but end up with a mottled area of the sky.  If I get it smooth, it seems to have a different texture because I've used a lower opacity in the brush.  I've tried replacing the sky with a gradation but blending that at the horizon is always a bit iffy.
