Re: How to: "Christian Schmidt" Look

or you could try this..
open
duplicate background, name it 'light'
set this layer 'light' to screen.
duplicate layer 'light' and set blending mode to between 60 and 100 % to suit

then a little fine tuning to finish?

Fantastic!
And add some Curves, and it's a hit.

Thanks.

Question Re: How to: "Christian Schmidt" Look

This is really, really interesting!

I just realised that you have the possibility to develop raws applying a linear curve.
This is the case in most raw developping software like adobe cs raw or leaf capture.
This seems to lead to similar results, if you do the multiply inverse and gamma thing.

I am not sure if - physically - this is the same thing:
Applying a linear gamma and developping with a linear curve instead of medium contrast.

I wonder if it is a good idea to apply a linear profile, that is not somehow related to the photo. As far as I understood ColorManagement, profiles always should refer to the camera/scanner/monitor
To me this seems to be a method that works somehow, but might cause some unwanted effects, especially if you do the applying/converting thing more than one time.

I found out that all the generic camera-profiles and the flextight input (scanner) profile
show little or no visible colour difference, but lighter with less contrast if applied.
But what happens to the colours?

Can anybody bring some clearence please?
