Hi Gimp-user, I found this article/tutorial on curves w/Gimp helpful in improving my understanding of the topic:
http://www.thelensflare.com/docs/index.php/A_basic_curves_tutorial Just thought I'd pass it on. I had an interesting black and white photo with a lot of sky. It made the curves histogram look like: ____| I selected the sky separately and applied curves by moving the white highlight dot, on the right, down to 240, then I inverted the selection. The histogram for the body of the image was a kiddies snow skiing slope. I pulled the black shadow over to the beginning of the snow skiing slope and then created a weak "s". I notice I tend to like thinks white/light. When I finally put the images on a DVD and view them on my TV, they are really white - almost hurts your eyes to look at it. Ooops! Working with curves has really made me think about what I'm doing. -- __________________________ DJ _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
