For sure. Just search "perspective" on my site.

Yeah, that's REALLY old now. Maybe all your ports are USB 3, and the device can't cope? I'm not sure. It's a moot point anyway, because your new screen is very likely LED, and the old X-Rite devices don't work well for LED screens, we're told.

Oh gosh!!!

So are you definitely dragging and dropping, as I explained from about 7:20 onwards in the video?

Sure, this is pretty standard stuff. Did you browse the files? PLEASE take the Raw Class, pronto.

Then why the heck are you asking how to convert to black-and-white??? Did you even read the class? The Layers & Masks one, for learning about the different layer types. No.

Can you let me know what you find out?

Bringing out the extra texture would be equivalently done in Photoshop with a USM or High Pass layer, I assume. A pixel layer. And as such, you might as well just use the NIK filter, since the effect on the workflow is the same - it would be a pixel layer either way.

Whoa. You must NEVER convert to black-and-white by making your photo Grayscale mode. That's really bad.

Yes, that's where I'd be investigating.

Fellow Thermomixer here I think the bedroom looks better.

I don't think it has been asked before It's new to me. It seems just as likely to be a mouse issue as a keyboard one. Are you using a mouse, tablet or trackpad?

Hi Nicole, do you mind posting the actual files of those photos also? Thanks.

When you choose the Ellipse tool, look at the Options Bar. Somewhere up there (probably close to the left-hand end, but it varies by version) there will be an option for "Shape/Path/Fill". You have to make sure yours is set to Path. Also, make sure, in the Layers panel, you have the layer mask selected, not the layer thumbnail. I mean, click on the white box thumbnail to make sure it has a little border around it.

Just to check, you've watched my video?

What??? Because it's tiny, of course!!! I didn't give you that file just to use. I gave it to you so you could copy the steps on your own full-size file.

Good, but you'll also need to paint (at low opacity) on the pink cast on the floor too.

Yeah, err towards 1800 if you can. Gee, how blue?

Gosh, great work. Well done.

Well, it depends on the situation. If you cloned something in the right place, but just the wrong colour or whatever, simply clone over it. But yes, if you cloned onto an area that wasn't supposed to be cloned onto, masking.

Channel Mixer layer: Red 0, +55, 0 Green 0, +47, 0 Blue 0, +55, 0 Then start the very painful masking.

How did you go? May we see?

https://www.facebook.com/groups/195567190503489/permalink/620088411384696/ I do intend to convert that thread into a proper article ... I haven't got around to it yet, sorry. There are a few ways to accomplish this, so let me know if you need to discuss further.

Jolene?
