Hello!!

I have been away for a while a feel like a brand new member.

I was taking back tools to get ready and to refresh my Photoshop skills.

As a first practice I wanted to find all the tutorials to fix undexposed images. I have asked around, look around and I can't gathered the last tutorials I saw.

Do the tutorials get removed after certain time? I have looked and looked and spend so much time looking but no luck. Retouchpro is getting BIGGER AND BIGGER every year. Incredible!!

Could anyone tell me where I or how to find all the tutorials related to this matter? If anyone knows any or anything close to it please post it
I will appreciate it a lot.

I have images with the subject very light and the background veeeeeery dark. I know that with the good help of CS this is a lot easier but not as detail and real.

Thank you so much ahead of time. I remember the last time I checked there was a good tutorial to bring the details of dark images but I forgot who wrote it. Man! it is hard to find a golden-coin in this inmense treasure of information that is these forums.

Take care and good fortune!

All the tuts are listed here ...mabe the one you are looking ofr is there?

Correcting underexposed images can be greatly facilitated with the use of the Shadow / Highlight adjustment in Photoshop CS or CS2. Following is a free video tutorial and one of many articles out there.

Thank you very much for the info. I had checked the tutorials but I never found what I was looking for.

What was the technique used before the Shadow/highlights? in PS7 or before to solve this problem?
I will appreciate if someone could give me a hint. No problem if you can't.



I still have PS7. I remember seeing tutorials on this underexposed images with a lot of shadows.

Again, thank you very much..

Prior to CS, the methods used were Curves, which many users found intimidating, layer blending and masking, and levels. Shadow / Highlight tool is a huge time saver and simplifier..
