I'm cleaning up some still life images and wondered if there is an easy way of making a light grey background white, without affecting the main object - is it just a case of selecting the object and altering the background in levels / curves or is there a simpler way.
Dear Becky
In the absence of replies from the experts here and in case you are waiting for responses, I will try to assist.
If you really do only want to restrict your corrections to the background and want your alterations have absolutely no effect on the subject, then you have to select exactly. This means using paths manually which you turn into a selection and inverse to make it select the background. Take care use a feather radius above zero, or you will have an unreal edge to your subject....it's resolution dependent so I cannot advise.
Hope that helps. Now what are we both doing working on a Sunday afternoon!
Cheers
