what would be the best way to adjust the color of this map? I need to remove the dark red tone on the far right side & adjust the density to match the yellow side. Never did one like this before.
Thanks in advance

Re: restoring antique map
You may want to try this way:
- Select the darker areas using your favourite method to form a mask
- Add a Curves layer with the mask you created above
- Add a Hue & Sat layer and reduce Sat to 0 leaving a greyscale image to enable easy balance of luminosity values
- Adjust curves layer with mask to match tonalities
- Use another curve layer for overall contrast to taste
- Then bring back some colour as required by adding a blank layer and filling with colour and select blend mode Colour and reduce opacity to taste

This is about the best I've gotten it, but the man's face still seems too pink too me and the color balance sliders don't seem to be getting me anywhere. Do others agree? Any suggestions? I'll post the...09-18-2003, 01:09 PM

Hi Everyone!
This is picture damaged in a fire. Wondering what is the best that can be done with it?
I have tried replacing the red channel, but that ended up losing the proper colors and making the damaged leg areas only a little better.
Any suggestions??...05-15-2004, 10:47 PM -
I recently started putting colour to a B&W photo but have run into some trouble with skin tones (just the girl) and also putting colour to the grass.
The method I use is applying a new layer, colour what I want, set the layer to colour and then hue/saturation to get it right. Any...04-05-2007, 06:03 PM -
I did a search and found some solutions, which I've tried but I can't seem to get anywhere with a light leak issue. I've tried a variety of masking techniques, separate adjustment layers and nothing seems to work all that well. As it happens I've got a blank frame with the leak so I tried scanning...08-28-2007, 09:58 AM
