Really Bad Moire on Striped Shirts


Chantal

Recommended Posts

Hello!

I'm having a tough time editing the horrible moire effect out of these photos. The LR tool doesn't seem to affect it, and I hate to use the median tool or gaussian blur in Photoshop on a striped pattern. Any tips on how I can fix this (or---can I outsource them to you)? There are several more with varying degrees of severity. I sent them off to Photographer's Edit with no luck. It's on the oldest woman's shirt, the oldest man's jacket (much more moderate), and also on the blonde baby's shirt.

The moire does not show in preview modes in any of the software systems, but rather just upon export (and also when I bring them into Smart Albums to design an album). This makes it especially difficult to edit. I'm also noticing that they don't look as bad when I upload them here as they do in full resolution on my screen.

 

Thanks in advance!

Chantal

My apologies! I never saw the original reply come through. I just discovered a few minutes ago that the moire was actually only visible when the images were in Preview or not viewed at 100% in Photoshop; there, they look fine, so I'm assuming the moire only happens when I view it compressed. Thank you, though -- I'm relieved it wasn't an actual problem, and appreciate your willingness to help!

Well yes, I guessed that was the case, but I warn you that it doesn't mean you're entirely out of the woods.

Have you read this article?  https://www.damiensymonds.net/2015/02/moire.html

Oof, no, I hadn't. This isn't terribly comforting. Fortunately, my clients go through me for all the printing, so I'll be able to spot check everything. And, I'll be sure and check their web images after resizing to be sure they don't look covered in oil spills. Thank you!
