Snowbirds.........

Postby Rifleman » Fri Apr 09, 2004 6:22 pm

Just got in from watching the afternoon practice of the Snowbirds.........got a new vantage point and it seemed to be ok but for the back lighting of the P.M. sun....some shots came out a tad dark but maybe Photoshop can help a bit.....?.....I hope so, cause I shot 335 images today...........this one is fixed a tad........

This is before.......

And this is after.......

Pete, I guess you missed how I meant my comment ......I added the second image to the first one to show the before and after effects of my fix........first, I used "Levels" to bring a full highlight to shadow range of illumination, then I selected all aircraft and feathered this selection by 1 pixel and did an " auto colour " adjustment to all the planes.....then I did the auto colour on the entire image.......allowed me to brighten and add contrast and colour to the planes without having too much contrast when I brightened the sky......
