    RGB Channels

    By BamaCutie on Thursday, July 12, 2001 - 08:46 am:

    I've been reading alot of online forums about digital retouching and have found alot of folks who retouch in regards to RGB channels. I have a photo with some type of mold damage and checked out the RGB channels and found that the blue channel showed the damage more than the other two. How do I handle this? Do I work directly on the blue channel? I'm totally curious... Could someone out there shed some light? Thanks. ~Maya~

    Is it a color or B/W photo? If B/W, pick the channel that looks the best and use it, discarding the other two. In color you can try working on a single channel, just make sure you don't rearrange anything in relation to the other two channels, or you'll have color spots.

    Thanks, Doug, for your reply. The photo is color and I will play around with working in individual channels. So much to learn!

    I've heard the blue channel is often the culprit in scanned color images.

    Combining channels
    by Panpan
    When looking at an individual primary channel in Photoshop, the image is lighter. Can somebody help me understand this? Something that is not perceptually neutral is happening behind the scene.

    For example, a b&w image's RGB channels all look the same when I turn on each one individually,...

    After importing a picture to PS I opened the channels pallete to see what is the best channel for masking and accidentally saw a really nice combination of the red and blue channel. Now, how do I get rid of the other channels ? I really like this look and color and would like to try and play with it...

    Copying part of a channel
    by derekfountain
    As a newbie, I was having a go at challenge #44 with Photoshop 7. I got bogged down in an issue which really shouldn't be that difficult.

    The writing at the bottom of the photo needs to be removed, and, conveniently, doesn't show in the blue channel. So, just take that part of the image...
