| Workshop Note |
Hi Richard
As I said, this workshop was done on the underexposed version of the original photo you posted as a workshop.
Unfortunately you use Photo-Studio so I'm not sure if you will be able to do this within your software. Anyway, I thought I'd just show you how PhotoShop presents a solution to this backlight problem. Actually all the "Shadow/Highlight" settings (which were the main processing to accomplish this result) were done at default setting except for the "Midtone contrast".
Post Processing done:
1. Adjusted the "Shadow/Highlight" settings at the following values:-
-- Shadows:
-- Amount = 50%
-- Tonal width = 50%
-- Radius = 30px
-- Highlights:
-- Amount = 0%
-- Tonal width = 50%
-- Radius = 30px
-- Adjustments:
-- Colour correction = +20
-- Midtone contrast = -46
2. Adjusted "Contrast" to +3
3. Increased "Saturation" +3
4. Adjusted "Gamma" settings in "Exposure" to 1.03.
5. Chose "Save for Web".
6. Adjusted the "Quality" upwards from the original downloaded size of 136kB to 288kB.
I hope you approve of the optimisation that I've done.
Best regards
