The second one is terrible. The first one is much better.

Did you fix the colour space problem?

Try this for me ... add a Channel Mixer layer, and use these values: Red 0, +86, 0 Green 0, +96, 0 Blue 0, +115, 0 Mask it on loosely and see what you think.

This is not uncommon at all. Different cameras behave differently, and of course Adobe's interpretation of different cameras' raw data varies quite a bit. You could play with this if you wish. But honestly, it's no big deal, you'll just find you tend to edit with lower midtone contrast than you used to.

May I see a closer crop of that area? Well, it should be as simple as moving the Hue slider of the Master channel to the left a bit. I'm not sure that Colorize will be necessary in this case.

Yes, always. Any time you see that checkbox, anywhere, always have it checked.

Ok, what about if you go Window>Workspace>Photography?

No, sorry I'll move this to the GenDisc area to see if anyone else knows a good method.

Raw noise removal

There is a great deal of fiddling to get the stops right. It starts with a rough lasso selection. Have you read this one?

By the way, did you see this thread?

The Handyman Method will work fine for this.

Those ones are actually drawn that way.

Have you gone to Window>Workspace>Reset Workspace?

Hi Silvia, can you post it bigger? This is very tiny.

OH!!!!! Do you mean you sent them sRGB files, and they converted them for you ... and then what? Have you seen them printed? Or just on screen?

Interesting ... I would never have thought of that.

Well, you'll have to burn some shadows in there, I guess.

That's right. That's why I didn't replace it entirely. Better to leave the natural shadows there.

First, have you read this?

My settings are completely irrelevant, because I was working on a different size file to you. Just play and see what looks most suitable. You don't need to do anything special. Just apply Gaussian Blur to the smart object, and it will automatically do it as a smart filter.

No, at this size, perfect.

Some general info in this article too.

Depending on your version of Photoshop, you might see the option for "Place Embedded" or "Place Linked". Use embedded. You'll find examples of File>Place here, here, here, here and here. It's Gaussian. You should be able to see it in my screenshots. No, it's really huge, sorry. Too big to upload. Just follow the steps I showed you, you'll do fine. No, just give it a good chunk. More than you think you'll need.
