Hello.<br /><br />I decided to select the white areas that should not be changed,  boats, then invert the selection and finally use CM.  With CM, I used the K channel with maximum black setting.  I adjusted the K channel mask and then darkened the sky.  I posted a snapshoot of the mask with the red ...

Hello.<br /><br />I tried this image although I am not satisfied with the correction.  The fence appeared more yellow before the correction; how would I get the fence more yellow again?  Also, the statue lost some detail; how would I bring out the detail in the statue?  Overall, the foliage looks be...

Hello.<br /><br />I just noticed you posted a video on Expanding Color Variations in Lab.  I decided to watch this video and then try adjusting the foliage again.  I like this version better than the previous one.  I decided to set a shadow and a neutral.  I decided not to set a highlight because I ...

Hello.

I experimented with this image extensively.  I still do not like the sky.  What do you think of this image?

Hello.

I decided to take another try at this image.  I set the shadow and the neutral, however, there was no obvious highlight.  I then applied the K mask and adjusted it.  It looks to like like the greenish cast is a lot better.  What do you think?

Thank you
David

Hello.<br /><br />I am always very cautious when upgrading software because of potential bugs or system problems. <br /><br />Even though the Pin to Grid appears to be a problem in CM 3.2.5, I will not upgrade to CM 3.3.4 because the loading of ACV files is a feature I heavily use.  How will I know ...

Hello.<br /><br />You suggest that we download and install CM 3.3.4.  I just want  to confirm that there are no reported significant bugs in this version.  Also,  should I uninstall CM 3.2.5 prior to installing CM 3.3.4 or should I just install CM 3.3.4 over 3.2.5?  Also, will Smart Filters created ...

Hello.

First, I adjust the saturation slider to bring out the reds.  Then I adjust the A curve, only moving the half that intensifies the greens until the greens are bright.  What do think of this image?

Thank you
David
