    A few of my pics.

    maybe the most dangerous advise to give to someone new, trying to learn... learn to trust your meter... 95% of the time... then... know when you meter will be confused on the remaining 5%... all cameras have meters... always have, always will... I can show you thirty different histograms...

    Image Size/Resolution Confusion... eeek... am I too late, will I have to start again?

    Re: file size... printer resolutions... sorry to confuse you... a printer will print at a given resolution... this is controlled by the printer, not the files it is printing... your document will/can have only one resolution... you may have constructed that document, with multiple parts that...

    Image Size/Resolution Confusion... eeek... am I too late, will I have to start again?

    file size... printer resolutions... math is correct... the printer is not pasting this file onto the paper... pixel by pixel... the printer will re-render this file, after using the printer software... and print at a resolution of 300dpi... you cannot compare image pixels, file size... to...

    Histogram Pixel Area Problem

    Histograms are a visual representation... I would consider them far from accurate for your purposes... why not just enlarge to 1000% and count accurately... select, isolate on layers, and make large prints... for exact counting...

    Help w/ prints

    you can use a color enlarger for B/W... expect longer printing times, as the light is less bright... for graded papers pull-out all filtration... for multigrade papers use yellow filtration for low contrast... and Magenta filtration for higher contrast... or... pull-out all filtration and use...

    Help w/ prints

    maybe... you missed the last two paragraphs... If you shoot RAW and convert to 16 bit TIFF, skipping JPEG all the way, then, if you have your editing suite properly profiled, go ahead and use aRGB. You most likely know what you are doing and even if you donít really benefit from using aRGB...

    Help w/ prints

    sorry... I assumed everyone would know that RGB... was... Adobe RGB 1998... since it is the Industry standard... if your camera has RGB... ( Adobe RGB 1998) I suggest to use that space, as it is larger than sRGB... can you explain why you want to capture "less" color info... by using sRGB...

    Help w/ prints

    Color Spaces... when working on your images use RGB, it is bigger color-space than sRGB... or... better yet use ProPhoto RGB... as it is larger yet... always start with the best possible color... the printer... will convert to the correct color-space it uses... ( the machine/software...) the...

    a collage of small prints ? or... a print of a collage you created in PS ? being a customer printer, I would hope you look for someone better than Walgreens... print quality is more about the printer used... than the file you use...

    Sometimes panorama stitching doesn't blend images

    very much image dependent... overlapping more always helps... think of it this way, the more you move side-to-side, and up-n-down from the normal shot... the more images you will need at the extreme edges, PS is trying to make one image... in the image posted, I would have also followed the...

    Difference in sharpness in PS RAW and PS

    just as everyone has mentioned, sharpening should be the last step, and is device/media dependent... all sharpening/contrast adjustments, should be applied to the Luminosity mode, as not to affect color... or better said... to affect the colors correctly... sharpen.. then edit/fade change the...

    Converting to B & W

    there are numerous actions you can get for free for conversions... simply removing color will leave you with an image that needs to be re-built with contrast... there is no one method, as every image will process differently... there several third-party programs that will do it very well, and...

    Restoring old photos from DISC film

    are you scanning a print? or... scanning the film? when you say disc film, are you referring to the pinwheel type film? if, so, that film was smaller than 110 film...

    Restoring old photos from DISC film

    as mentioned before... you need to start with a higher res. scan... just not enough pixels to deal with... duplicated about six times, using the multiply blend mode... increased contrast, opened mid-tones with levels... removed color... you could start "repainting" color from here...

    How can i get two images side by side?

    hmmmm... maybe... create a document, then... place/drop/drag... two images into the new document... line them up... side-by-side... to answer your next question... if you use a grid, and snap-to... they might even, align perfectly... on the www... there is this new fangled thing called "the...

    Restoring badly faded film photos

    the better approach will be to multiply layers to add back density and color... the image posted is entirely too small, as shadow detail in the faces, just does not exist... the small file does not allow any sharpening, to sharpen what detail is here... my only option was to add just a touch of...

    Armin Hofmann Giselle effect

    Hmmm... high-speed B/W film, theatrical stage lighting, and a spinning ballerina... in PS... process a B/W image with lots of contrast, and add grain/noise... selectively take things to black... stage lighting will be the most difficult to reproduce, unless you start with a stage lit image...
