[Gimp-user] interesting red eye problem

Help please. thanks It may depend on the hair color. If they are pale blonde or on the contrary very black (i.e. without red in their color), you can try working only on the Red channel. There you can use the Dodge/Burn tool, for example. This will not use the red eye removal filter, which works only on very simple cases. -- Olivier Lecarme ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

There is red in the hair but I will take your advice and try it on a different channel, does CNN work? I\'m a newbie :-) glibwort.
