This is a photograph that was taken about a year ago with a standard point-and-shoot Kodak CX4230. The problem, as you can see, is bright sunlight behind the subjects, and therefore they are very dark. I've tried, but can not seem to improve it much, maybe it's impossible, I don't know. But I was wondering if some of you guys would take a stab at improving the photo.
I am looking to extract natural noise from a photographs material and create a black and white layer out of it, but I am new to photoshop and unsure how to proceed with this.
For example, here is a photograph of a hard plastic gun.
I have seen on forums where users will find a good reference image and use it to create a new black and white noise picture utilizing the reference.
For instance the hard plastic noise from the gun, might look like this once extracted and done correctly.
I simply want it to look high quality, right now its kind of blurred and low quality looking... I want it to look like I just made it, like it should at high quality.
currently work on a large (30.000x5.000 px) image, that is supposed to go to print soon. still i am not happy with its "fake" 3d appearance. the below link shows two cut outs. i would like to get this thing a little "rounder" - a little more floating above the surface. i already tried inner shadow, yet with no success. is it maybe the shadow, that should be made a little more realistic?
I have 5 images in png format and I need to take license plate of a taxi from them. I tried a few techniques but couldn't improve the quality enough. The images are on the attachment and license plate is written on front door of the taxi.
I was at an event a few months ago that Kal Penn was at and took a picture with him but unfortunately only had my Blackberry to take the picture. I've tried to improve the picture quality in Photoshop 7.0 myself but I just can't seem to get this picture to look any better.
How to make the picture better quality? There is a lot of noise and it's just all around low quality. I've attached the full size picture but feel free to resize it if that makes it easier to edit.
and I'm just trying to tweak so it looks 100% legit. Specifically what font to use, text color and text placement. I know some of the white text is hard to read...what color could I change it to without messing up my color scheme?
which affects and filters do you recomend i use to improve the quality of this photograph, it was taken with a phone in the dark so is terrible quality.
I have an image that is about 72 DPI, but I want to increase the quality of it. I also have another image that is 300 DPI, but looks the same in quality to the 72 DPI one. Is there a way to improve the resolution on the latter image as well?
I've taken a picture on a digital camera in a dimly lit room. Having downloaded it to PC, the picture has a horrible yellow/orange tinge from the light bulb. How can I correct this using Photoshop CS and improve the colours without washing them out or introducing image noise.
replaced the head on the attached photo and would like to use this for an employee presentation. How I can make it look a little more real? The employees are going to know that it was photoshopped, but still would like to make it better if possible. I still feel the head is a little too bright.
Any way to improve a photo in GIMP so that it can be printed in larger formats? Enlarging seems to be okay, adding a black bg and setting layer mode to overlay also seems to have worked, but as I am aiming at selling my photos, I want to be 100% sure I deliver a good enough product!
This is something that I've been able to do without a problem in the past and now something has happened where it no longer works. When I insert a picture either into a new blank file or onto another picture and then click on the new picture to resize, it appears that the tool sees only the original document and not the photograph that I've just dragged onto it. It does not show the dotted line selection or the resize handles. Also when I try to use the resize menu option in either canvas or image option it changes the whole document and not the new photograph.
I am trying to add some effects to a photograph of mine like the photo below. Can anybody tell me what tools and options i might use to create a background layer like this one into my own photograph, and maybe how to transform a face in a regular photograph to one like below?
How do I attach a simple grid to a photograph for the purpose of sketching. I prefer to draw from an image via photoshop as opposed to a print out being that the quality is better. There is also the added advantage of being able to zoom in.
i m making a 3d model of landscape design, i need some trees from photographs for visualization purposes in elevations. however it's not possible to extract them from a photograph neatly using extract tool from filter. how can i do a nice extraction?
Back in the early 80's I had an exhibition of my paintings and took photos from an Olympus OM-10. Each painting had a spotlight mounted above it and as you can see from the attached picture, the light glare is strong at the top of the painting (washing out the color and details) and the glare extends about halfway down the photo. I have Photoshop CS3 Extended. how to eliminate the glare from the top half of the painting?
I've heard that when making a photograph smaller in Photoshop the results are better if it's done in steps instead of all at once.
If this is true how much should it be reduced each time and should the change in pixels per inch be done before reducing the image
My camera saves at 300 ppi at 3872 pixels wide (sometimes they are cropped which makes them smaller) and for the web I need about 500 pixels wide at 72 ppi.
I have a few brochure files - and I want to make them look like this:What do I mean by "this"... I want to give them this folded look as not to have them on my portoflio so flat and plain...
Is there a way I can make like a template in Photoshop - including the "warping" so that the paper looks slightly curved? Would an Action be the way to go?
