| Re: Ok.. here is an untouched shot of mine Such a cool image to play with. I really love the dark images. BillFrey and Edgework...great versions. The enhancements really added to the creepy effect. |

| Re: Ok.. here is an untouched shot of mine Quote:
I did a modest Lucis Art Sculpture on selected parts of the image (midtones), and lots of contrast adjustments on selected parts of the image. I think most people try different filters and adjustments on the whole picture all the time. It's important to pay attention to different parts of the image and try to visualize what is needed to be done. I also switch between RGB and LAB mode. I find LAB mode better when I want to create strong colors. By the way.. I'm not sure you would need Lucis. There are tutorials on how to achieve simillar effects with free tools and Photoshop filters. One thing about Lucis if you have it: it's sooo sensitive. Be sure to remove all dust and imperfections on parts you want to modify with Lucis (Noise Ninja/NetImage/Noise Reduction in Photoshop). Otherwise it will stand out, as you can see on some of the other examples in this thread. Just a note... Jimmy Last edited by JIE; 11-16-2007 at 05:54 AM. |

| Re: Ok.. here is an untouched shot of mine Jimmy can you give an example on how you selected the midtones? Did you use magic wand with the shift key? How was lucas art able to work with just the parts you selected? |

| Re: Ok.. here is an untouched shot of mine Quote:
For even better control.. create a B/W duplicate (duplicate layer and then Desaturate) ... pick a neutral grey as forground color... then do Select -> Color Range and drag the slider to determine the amount of midtones you want as selection. Throw away the B/W copy and then apply the filter of your choice on the original layer. In the same way you can select amounts of highlights (use white as forground color) and shadows (use black as forground) for other nice tricks. Jimmy |

Gradient Map Adjustment Layer Edit Gradient: Black at each end, white in the middle. Adjust sliders to focus on the desired range. Select All. Copy merged. Paste into an alpha channel. (Don't forget to kill the gradient map layer). |

| I am having a hard time trying to figure out how to paste into an Alpha channel and also find where it is at. Can you post the steps? |

| Re: Ok.. here is an unretouched shot of mine I'm having similar issues, but to answer scottyb's question Go to channels palette, click create new channel and paste. But I want to know: When I paste to a new Alpha, then I load the Alpha as a selection, go back to the original layer, and the Lucis Art, it doesn't seem to honor the selection, and does a global processing instead. So I tried loading selection as a new layer, and then ran Lucis Art, but the deselected areas come out as plain white instead of transparency. What am I missing? |
