OH DAMIEN HOW I LOVE YOU!!!! Yes, this works. 5% isn't quite enough so I have to play around a bit.

argh. I hate this cc version. I'm a cs6 girl and I just lost my panel workspace ... wth?? i picked the wrong time to give up drugs and switching from cs6.

So far so good... I'm in between projects so it might take me a while to post the fix. But the color blend looks to be a nice (non-green) hue.

Photoshop CC (current version)

Hi Damien, is there an effective way to lighten the darker areas on her skin? I've tried dodging, without much success. I'm guessing my technique needs your secret sauce. Help!

Re: the sharpening. Yes, it's true. All we have left of the Governor Reagan years were these little teeny negatives. To scan them at a resolution for posterity, they were scanned at like a bazillion dpi and the files ended up at about a gazillion MB each.

And just like that, all is right with the world again! Thanks, I'll get them on the right page.

Yikes, yes. Long gone. If it's not possible, I get it. I just thought if ANYONE would have a fix, it would be you. But I'm prepared to tell the filmmakers "no can fix" if that's your verdict.

Had my intern scan it about 15 years ago from a negative. The photo will be used as b-roll in a film. This is a screen grab where it is much more visible.

Okay, I don't get it. The film producers are complaining about the moire, but I'm not seeing it on the zoom.

Weird ... the moire doesn't show up in the crop... but it's pretty obnoxious otherwise. Going out a little further on the crop to see if it shows better.

Hi Damien, this photo was scanned from a negative and needs to be fixed for an upcoming film project. Is there something I can do about the moire in Reagan's jacket? Thanks in advance for your help.

Thank you, Damien!

Oh Damien, I get goosebumps every time I see magic like that! Do tell! Did you remove the hairs, or liquify them?

Oooooopsie! Sorry about that,

Sure thang!

Hi Damien, what would be the best way of pushing this gentleman's hair back into place? Thanks in advance!

Damien, Damien, Damien. You are truly a savior. Thank you, thank you.

Hey D., left work sick today (damn triplets). Back at it on the morrow. Thanks for checking in.

Hi Damien & Co., Is there a simple (or even complex) fix for the distortion caused by her lenses? I thought I saw a tutorial on this in the past, but can't seem to locate today.

Stupid question of the Day (SQOD): Is the "formula" always about the same? i.e. +100 on reds lightness, +15 on yellow? Or was that specific to my gal's scalp/grey? I seriously want to go back to every photo I've ever taken with thinning hair and make this fix. wow.

Holy shit, Damien. I just fell out of my chair... and bowing down to you all at once. wow.

Thank you, thank you. That's a whole lot easier then cloning fresh hair!! Another happy customer.

Hi Damien, I'm hoping you have a magic cure for scalp peekage. I don't want to give her a full head of hair; just trying to add something natural to cover where it's thinning. Any ideas?
