calliechinen Posted May 15, 2019 Posted May 15, 2019 I am posting the 100% of my pants! Should I post in a new thread about possibly moving my son closer to us (asked about on facebook) and also wondering if there is anything to be done with my tummy bulge. I usually hide myself behind my children for this one very self concious reason!
Damien Symonds Posted May 15, 2019 Posted May 15, 2019 Try this Channel Mixer layer: Red 0, +70, +30, +1 Green 0, +70, +30, 0 Blue 0, +70, +30, -4
calliechinen Posted May 15, 2019 Author Posted May 15, 2019 Is there somewhere with more info? When I put those numbers in (I don't actually know what channel mixer does) it makes the photo black and white. . .
Damien Symonds Posted May 15, 2019 Posted May 15, 2019 Um ... duh. Now mask it to the problem area only. (Your pants).
calliechinen Posted May 15, 2019 Author Posted May 15, 2019 Like I said - I don't know what that layer does and I've never had to fix moire before - not such a "duh" moment for me, hence the question.
Damien Symonds Posted May 15, 2019 Posted May 15, 2019 If there is a problem with your pants, I don't understand why you wouldn't assume the solution would involve masking to your pants?
calliechinen Posted May 15, 2019 Author Posted May 15, 2019 It was more so that I didn't even know it would take me to black and white so I was dumbfounded and not thinking clearly - shocked at the result of a black and white image so frozen in who knows what.
Damien Symonds Posted May 15, 2019 Posted May 15, 2019 It's not black-and-white, don't you see? It's pant-colour.
Damien Symonds Posted May 15, 2019 Posted May 15, 2019 May I see a screenshot of the Detail (noise) panel from ACR for this photo?

Well - now I see lol - but when it was over the whole image ? . . . let's just say I just woke up from a nap and wasn't thinking too clearly I don't really know. Brain fart? who knows, but thanks for the help!
Damien Symonds Posted May 15, 2019 Posted May 15, 2019 There's a bit more we need to do. First, can you tell me what the "Background copy" layer is for?
Damien Symonds Posted May 15, 2019 Posted May 15, 2019 Geez, you don't make a habit of this, do you? Don't double the size of your file for "no real purpose"!

Damien Symonds Posted May 15, 2019 Posted May 15, 2019 Phew. As it happens, you got lucky this time, because we do need that duplicate layer. You need to apply some Gaussian Blur to it - just enough to get rid of the distinct fabric lines, eg around your hand. I think about 0.6 will do. Then mask that layer too.
calliechinen Posted May 24, 2019 Author Posted May 24, 2019 Sorry - busy end of school year time! This is with the gaussian blur
Damien Symonds Posted May 24, 2019 Posted May 24, 2019 I realise it's not perfect, but it's the best I can offer, I'm afraid.
calliechinen Posted May 24, 2019 Author Posted May 24, 2019 No worries! Thanks! (Note to self, no more thin stripes!) 1
