 Crop,Levels,Sharpen | vanderschelden
(30147) [2006-09-25 09:58:36] [1] | Crop: to getrid of the grey 'zoo' part. Take not that it is bad. But I like it more like that.
Levels: Black point at the nose.
Sharpen: smart sharpen in LAB mode (image)

 Levels, Sharpen. | vanderschelden
(30147) [2006-09-24 05:41:46] | Levels. Put the left triangular slider to the right in histogram and the right to the left.
Gives more contrast.
Sharpened in LAB mode. A little...
I think there's a bit of OE in the beak...could be looked after...
The sunlight is the cause of these 'problems' of course;-)

(30147) [2006-09-23 08:13:23] [1] | It is against the rules, I know.

Further on I smart sharpened the bird

 Cropping... | vanderschelden
(30147) [2006-09-22 18:17:36] [2] | Cropped to get rid of the sea. In mean time put the bird in another compo.
Levels...open the histogram and you'll see the flat part. So ...increased contrast through sliders.
Hope you like it.

 Hi Bill | vanderschelden
(30147) [2006-09-20 08:59:13] [2] | Welcome on this site,
Thanks for posting.
I did a little workshop with your picture. Like Sabine said it is a good post but slightly out of focus.
My workflow:
Levels and contrast adjusted
Cropping
And sharpening with USM
These tools were used in Photoshop CS2

 Grey Heron (14) bartove
(6222) |
 Levels | vanderschelden
(30147) [2006-09-19 10:22:01] [1] | Levels...put the black into 'end tail' and the white
on a white part of the bird.
The effect though is not a lot: a bit more contrast.
Checked the colour balance and IM0 this is okay! |
