Re: Peso: Spring Crocus

2010-03-22 Thread Paul Sorenson

Bob -

You should be able to brighten just the green leaves using this technique:

In Lightroom's Develop module open up the HSL section and click on 
Luminance.  In the upper left corner of the HSL section you'll see a 
circle with a dot in the center.  Click on that and it will expand by 
adding an up and down arrowhead to the symbol.  When you move the mouse 
cursor over the image it will turn into that same symbol with an 
addition plus sign.  Put the plus sign on the color you want to brighten 
or darken.


Holding the left mouse button down and moving the cursor up will 
increase the luminence and brighten just that color.  Moving the cursor 
down will darken it.  When you think you have the adjustment to your 
liking, release the mouse button.  The cursor may disappear when you 
depress the mouse button but that's OK - it will reappear when you 
release it.  Just move the mouse forward or backward until the luminance 
of the selected color is right.  Go back to the symbol in the upper left 
of the HSL box and click on it to turn off that adjustment function.  At 
this point, if you decide you don't like what you did just do a Ctrl-Z 
to return to your previous settings.

I will often make a virtual copy in Lightroom and work on that instead 
of the original.  Than I can easily compare the original to what I've done.

Hardy little plant that. First day of spring and it don't care what the 
weather is, it's coming up NOW!


First day of autumn some other places.

I sort of like the symmetry of that, like kids playing on a 
teeter-totter. Spring here, fall there ... winter there, summer here, 
over and over and over again like little kids rolling in a pile of 
leaves. There's bound to be a good photo or two in that.
