| Bob Wallace (BobTrips) Msg: #1 April 18th 2006 03:39:02 | This is a really nice sunset/reflection picture. I just played with it a bit to see how 'rich' I could make it. (My version is probably a bit over the top.) I dropped the brightness some, increased contrast, and sharpened. This might have been a very good time to shoot a panorama - take a few overlapping frames and stitch them together. Looks like the interesting sky extended past both sides of your frame. |

| Buzz Wright (Buzz) Msg: #2 April 18th 2006 23:30:28 | Yeah I really like the colors in your version - i tried playing around with the "levels" to get the colors to look more like yours - is that how you did it? | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Bob Wallace (BobTrips) Msg: #3 April 19th 2006 02:06:54 | No, just something simpler. (Paragraph 2 ;o) PSE had a Brightness/Contrast set of controls. I just dropped the brightness a bit and upped the contrasts. Don't know why but increasing contrast seems to really work with gold. I do it a lot on gold covered statues (Buddhas, etc.) Sharpening makes the edges crisper along the tree line, among other places. (Don't expect really good explanations from me. I'm in the learning phase myself.) | |||||||||||||||||||||
