Week 3: Exercise 6 - St Vitus Cathedral, Prague. Removing a Shadow Cast (1)

[leeharper_admin]

I've just had a crack at this. I started by following the instructions, but as you'll see from my curves I decided to follow my own path with this. I added some points to the red channel to make the sky slightly more cyan. On my screen I thought it looked better that way  :).

I'm posting two versions - one which is a straight colour correction; the other has an additional steepening of the Lab b channel to make the sky look a bit nicer  ;). v1 is the correction only; v2 has got the saturation boost.

Once I was finished in CurveMeister I pasted a bogus black channel (in Multiply blend mode) on top. I tried to copy/paste the K mask using CurveMeister's Copy Channel button, but it didn't work (I seem to remember you saying that there were some bugs with copying the K mask).

Cheers,
Lee.

There indeed are some bugs..you could try a L channel I'm not sure the effect will the same.
