Righty!

See this?

JED_15s.jpg


Now I like the image, but I only had one flash to play with so it's caused a horrible shadow on the wall.

Anyone fancy a crack (oo er) at getting rid of it?

Can provide full size if needed :)

Full Size

GO GO!

I fail on the first two. Not a dab hand at photoshop and I'm not that bored :p

I take it theres some poor jpeg compression leading to an odd looking shadow on her bum :eek:

EDIT

probably the easiest way would be lassoo round her body and create a faint gradient to mimic the current background without the shadow?

The dodgy bum shadow is down to 2 things

1) As you rightly said, jpeg compression
2) TFT monitors, when you have a gradient like this most monitors make it look a bit blocky...you need an IPS panel to cure that :)

Cheers Adam. I'll host the full size, and nobody gets the RAW. Sorry :)

EDIT: And for those of you who don't know. This is Kaila who I did a photoshoot with before, remember in the pink prom dress? :)


Full size now added to the OP :)

ok, email me the full size, i wouldnt be suprised that the thread is removed. I think bumcracks are forbidden (family forum and all). email in trust

raw would be useful though, its easier to do the editing with an image that has had no contrast boost or sat increase.

I think bumcracks are ok, basically if you'd see it on a poster, out in public, whatever its fine. But stuff like nipples and otherwise are not :)

Full size is now in the OP :)

From memory its been de-saturated and have the curves adjusted a bit, not much though. Cheers again :)

I've got an ips so i'll put it down to jpg compression. Seen you've updated it though and it looks better on my phone now i'm off my pc! :p

You have an IPS? lucky swine! :p


And I've not touched that image.

Yep, got the dell 22" that oc sell. Just need it calibrated and learn some processing and my photos might get better!
And i wont make any comment on your last statement up there :o

Sorry but I just have to correct the misinformation, it's nothing to do with panel type. An 8bit panel will be able to display 8bit colour depth, which is seperate from panel construction as a TN/VA/IPS.

You are less likely to see banding (or at least rogue banding - especially in the shadow tones where most monitors struggle) on monitors with higher bit-depth processing engines (different to bit depth of the panel), but that doesn't nessecarily mean a monitor with an IPS panel, just an Eizo Coloredge :p

IPS panel != good monitor.

With an area of such gradual tonal difference the banding is as much likely to be the bit depth of the image as any jpeg compression (Though they sort of go hand in hand as we can't have 16bit jpegs anyway).

Ah cool stuff, I'm glad to be corrected, I'd rather know for next time :)

Oh me likes, like the contrastyness of it all to. However would like it as close to the original please, but thank you :) Appreciated.

Yeah I get easily distracted, slider adjustment here, exposure brush there..and so on ending up with something completely different to what I was trying to achieve. :D

Haha don't worry about it, I like it :D

And fair enough about being distracted ;)
