1st Image.

Greg Groess:
Everyone,
Here is the first image for you to play around with. 

I would like you to tackle this image 2 ways.

1) Use the color wizard to adjust this image and post your results.
2) Correct this image in LAB color space without the wizard. 

Goals for the image:
1) Increase contrast slightly.
2) Correct the color; it is off...using only Curvemeister.
3) Keep the colors reasonable.

Hint...the flower is almost a peach color when you get this right.

For those of you new to Curvemeister you can access LAB color by opening the plug-in on your image and closing the wizard.  Then click the LAB option and Curvemeister will convert the image to LAB for your adjustments; then back to RGB when you hit the "apply" button.

Please try out LAB it is one of the most powerful color spaces allowed in Photoshop. It is featured in the class and if you use PSE this is one of the only ways to access that color space.

Have Fun..
Greg

Greg Groess:
Here is my version of the image using the "Wizard".
Please try this out and see how much you can improve the image with a few simple steps.

Hint: there is no real neutral in the image so you can skip that step...

Set highlights and shadows and then LAB boost.

Hi Greg - It's been well over a year since I last participated.  I set the light and dark points and then used the curve to lighten the green leaves a bit.

BoydMac:
Greg, I'm having trouble with the color space.  The posted image looks nothing like the image I have on my computer.  What space should I use for the postings?
