Hello everyone, Just for context, let me say that I'm still relatively unskilled in Gimp...
I would like to modify part of a photo, for example a .jpg photo. For instance, I want to adjust the exposure or lighting of some sub-area of the whole photo. How can I do that? The context of my question is as follows. Without using a neutral density filter, often it's very difficult (nearly impossible!) to shoot certain scenes so that all parts of the image have the optimal exposure. For example, the sky might have the right exposure but a building or foliage might be too dark. Or, depending on your choice of image area for metering measurement, the ground/foliage might be properly exposed but the sky over-exposed. I have many photos right now for which I'd like to lighten the dark areas without over-exposing the sky. I've tried playing with selecting a rectangle and changing lighting but I must be making user errors. Could someone please point me in the right direction....? Many thanks, -- rhimbo (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
