Newbie Question Color Fix

[christo]

Thanks for answering. When I go to your link for the Katrin Eismann's book, and try to connect to the attachment 1 and attachment 2 nothing happens.

I really appreciate your help and tutorials, although I know at times it must seem like I am a complete moron.

Your technique for making the sky blue is great and I use it frequently. The only problem I have is sometimes when I use it, it blows the color out somewhere else.

Anyway just wanted to say thanks for being so understanding and sharing you expertise. It really is appreciated.

... the link connects to one of my replies in another Thread ... In that reply I quoted a tip from Katrin Eismann's Book about "setting the black and white target values" so that, when using Levels or Curves to set your black or white point in a picture to either minimize a colour cast or improve contrast, your shadows will never be solid black and your highlights pure white which would make you lose any detail in them.
"attachment 1 and attachment 2" in the same post, aren't links ... you simply need to scroll down the window completely and you'll see the attachments right at the bottom ... just click on the attachments to view them...

... If you use the "Blend if" technique you migh have to refine/correct the possible colour 'bleeding' into other parts of the picture with the help of a Layer Mask ....

Hope this helps ...
