    Making reflective metal look matt in finish

    Hi. My guess would be to tone down the highlight contrast (and possibly the midtone contrast too). The difficulty here is though is that you have captured this under quite bright conditions leaving streaks of blown highlights on the tubes. To get a better chance of achieving this I reckon you...

    Please help with a colour issue

    Thank you Renegade and Tom. The image was taken with the Nikon D800E and the in camera colour space is set to Adobe RGB (not stated if it's 1998). So when I open the RAW in ACR the default setting to open in Ps is Adobe RGB 1998 - 16 Bit TIFF. If I then Convert to Profile and I set to Adobe RGB...

    Brown, gold and bronze tones

    Hi there This may not be specifically a Ps question, it might relate to actual filters fitted on the camera, but this is a technique I would like to grasp. I would like to add this colour effect (without it looking rubbish). I have tried the Photo Filters in Ps, but none seem to work for...

    Replacing back ground properly

    Have you tried using the QuickMask tool to make a selection? I think that would be the easiest way. That is, if you're trying to what I think you are trying to do? Putting the portraits on a different background? (changing the background?) I would use Quick mask here by painting over the...

    Lost thread

    Can't be a Russian thing as I'm from the UK. I logged in this morning to see if there was a reply to my post. I then see a myriad of posts by some username (and I mean about 40-50 posts) all starting with "Buy online......" which pushed my post (and other genine posts) to page 3. So I added a...

    Yes, this is called 'Selective Colour'. I do mine by making a duplicate (Ctrl+J) of the image the Layers Pallet, adding a layer mask, and then paint over the area to reveal parts of the colour image beneath.

    HDR Layer mask

    Thank you mozartdminor, I'll give that a go. I forgot to add that I will at times need to align the images accurately too. Let me try and I'll see if this works. Scott edit: after opening the tiff image, the first picture disappears from my pallet. Well, disappears altogether.

    HDR Layer mask

    Hello Gurus :) I need some advice on something that is probably very basic, but I'm still young at this. I processed an HDR image using 3 shots with my D80 (-2.0, 0, +2.0). I put the 3 shots in Photomatix and processed the final HDR image. So far so good. I now have 4 files, the 3...
