Hi Francois,

I used PS CS2 and the shadows & highlights tool to get some light on the subject. Shadow setting was 50% and highlights 0%

Please let me know what you think.

Kind regards

Hi Hester,

I found this post in the forum interesting. I have to agree Claudine and Adrian. Yours have a green cast and Nigel's have a red cast.

I used levels in Photoshop CS2 then selected a black point (the eye) and white point (the head of the left deer) to remove the casts.

I also noticed that your photo was not assigned to a specific colorspace. You can read up on the topic here:

Please let me know what you think of my workshop in this regard.

Kind regards

Hi Pam,

At first all I wanted to do was to use selective reduction of the highlighted areas in the frame which I did. The I adjusted the contrasts a bit by using curves and lastly just added a little saturation.

Hi Jose,

I adjusted the colorbalance ti enhance the reds and yellows a bit. Then I added some saturation to make the colors pop. I hope you like it.

Kind regards

Hi Sherif,

I Adjusted the levels and curves in Photoshop to lessen the hot white breast and gain contrast. Then I sharpened using smart sharpen filter.

I hope it helps.

Hi Callie,

I just read an article in outdoor photographer regarding getting the details out of the shadows. I tried my hand at it and it seems to work. What do you think?

I adjusted the levels, used shadows & highlights (+10) and then color balance (Mid, Blue-10, Higlights, Blue -10, Shadows Blue -10) Reduced noise using neatimage and then sharpened a little.

Please let me know what you think.
