Color filters for BNW photography

Is it possible to apply something like that il PS Touch? Other apps have this feature (e.g. Snapseed), I also know that in PS that is possible, but I can't find a way to do this in PSTouch app.

There is a misunderstanding here. My fault, I have not been able to explain what I need to do.
In fact, I wat to apply a color filter *prior* the BNW conversion, the same way we used to do with analogic film BNW photography with the aim to change the contrast (e.g. darken blue skyes against bright clouds, you know...).
I know for sure (because I extensively use it) that Snapseed has this option available during the BNW conversion procedure (green, yellow, orange and red filters).
I also know (but only from readings as I do not have the program) that PS CSx has a built-in way to do this as well, even in a much more sophisticated way.
What I am asking is if anyone here knows a way to accomplish this in PSTouch as well, so I could drop Snapseed and obtain a better quality image.
I hope it is clear now, I'm sorry for the misunderstanding.

IPhoto unable to export EXIF information correctly for photos with color filters

I have imported photos from my phone to iPhoto and noticed that some of the photos do not have EXIF information when exporting to other places or synced back to iPhone.When I am trying to view the photo in iPhoto, the date is correctly shown.
The date shown in the iPhone photo moment tab is the import date rather than the original date when the photos were taken.
When I am trying toview the photo in iPhoto, the date is correctly shown.
(for example: the photo was taken in Dec 1, 2012, imported to iPhoto in Nov 1, 2014, and synced back to iPhone.
the date shown in iPhone is Nov 1, 2014, the date shown in iPhoto is Dec 1, 2012.)
After further looking into the details of the photo, i have noticed that theses photos are taken with color filters in iPhone or bursting photos or panoramas.
(e.g a mono or fade filter choosed when taking photo in iPhone camera).
When choose " reveal in finder" option in iPhoto for these photos, there are two options : view original or modified.
the original files contain EXIF information and the modified files do not.
the original files show photo without color filter
the modified files shows photo with color filter, the modified photos are what the photos were contained in iPhone originally.
When exported syncing these photos, the modified files was exported/synced, however, no EXIF information was exported. photos only contains the creation date.
These resulted in a mess in the photo collection in my phone. photos were displayed in wrong order.
When i export these photo to another location for back up purposes, i choose "include all location information, name, keyword", only the modified photos were exported without any EXIF information.
The only way I found is reveal these photos in finder.
iPhoto seems unable to export/sync photos that are taken with color filters/ panorama photos/ bursting photos.
is there any way to solve this problem? Thank you!

i have just taken a photo with effects and imported to iPhoto, The EXIF can be exported. The problem is syncing.
I think this problem only happen to photo taken before iOS 8.
EXIF of photo with effects unable be synced back to iPhone.
Apple acknowledged that the new Photos.app in iOS 8 is handling edits differently, see:
iPhoto and Aperture don't have edits to photos you import from iOS 8 devices
In iOS 8 edited versions are stored in a different way from previously. And it looks like there is now a bug, that prevents the older edited versions from being handled correctly.
Send a bug report to Apple. You could use the feedback form, if you do not have a developer account: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html

Well, a few Effects, that might help - a little, would be Curves, Levels and Shadow & Highlight, along with the Three-way Color Corrector. However, the success will depend on the footage. Can you post a Vimeo, or YouTube example, as once one sees what you are working with, they may have other ideas. Good luck, and welcome to the forums, Hunt

Which monitors for digital photography?

What features should be considered when choosing a color monitor for handling and editing digital photographs? What considerations should be given to size, resolution and features? What are some brand names that are reasonably priced that have the important features.
I'll be using the monitor as a plug-in for my PowerBook G4 when I want to have a larger screen than 15".
Thank you.

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

Correct export color space for wide gamut monitors.

Running a photography studio I have 4 typical scenarios of how clients or end users will see my photo work. I create and edit the photos using LR 3 on a HP 2475w (wide gamut) monitor. I'm aware that there are color shifts, but trying to figure out which export color space to use to be most consistent.
A) Wide Gamut monitor using color managed software or browser such as Firefox.
B) Wide Gamut monitor NOT using color managed software such as IE 8.
C) Standard monitor using color managed software or browser such as Firefox.
D) Standard monitor NOT using color managed software such as IE 8.
A) gives the best results and that's what I run myself. No matter the color space that I export (sRGB, aRGB, or my custom calibrated ICC) the images appear to be correct 100%
B) gives mixed results...the hosting site for my photos seems to oversaturate a bit when I view the photos in their preview size which is what my clients see, when I view the original photo in full resolution (this feature disabled for my clients to avoid them downloading full rez copies of images), then the images appears a bit dull (70%). When I try this same scenario using aRGB export, it looks better (90-95%). When I export it using my monitor profile then the photo is spot on 100% however my monitor profile shows the photo incorrectly when viewing it using the standard Windows Vista photo viewer, it appears lighter and less saturated which I guess I expect since it's not color managed.
C) On a standard monitor the photos all look the same regardless of color space export so long as I use a color managed browser such as Firefox.
D) This gives pretty much the same breakdown of results as scenario B above. At the moment, it appears that when I use my custom ICC profile which is the calibration of my monitor...I get the best web results.
However my custom ICC profile gives me the worst local results within my windows viewer and when my clients load the photos on their machines, no doubt they will look just as bad on theirs regardless of which monitor they use. So aRGB seems to be the best choice for output. Anyone else do this? It's significantly better when viewing in IE on both Wide Gamut and Standard LCD's when compared to sRGB.
I would guess that my typical client has a laptop with Windows and they will both view the photos locally and upload them on the web, so it needs to look as close to what it looks like when I'm processing it in LR and Photoshop as possible. I know that a lot of people ask questions about their photos being off because they don't understand that there's a shift between WG and non-WG monitors, but I get that there's a difference...question is which color space export has worked best for others.

I am saying that since images on the internet are with extremely few
exceptions targeted towards sRGB. It is extremely common for those images to
not contain ICC profiles even if they really are sRGB. If they do not
contain ICC profiles in the default mode in Firefox, Firefox (as well as
Safari btw, another color managed browser), will not convert to the monitor
profile but will send the image straight to the monitor. This means that on
a wide gamut display, the colors will look oversaturated. You've no doubt
seen this on your display, but perhaps you've gotten used to it. If you
enable the "1" color management mode, Firefox will translate every image to
the monitor profile. This will make the colors on your display more
realistic and more predictable (since your monitor's very specific
properties no longer interfere and the image's colors are displayed as they
really are) for many sites including many photographic ones. This is most
important on a wide gamut display and not that big of a deal on a standard
monitor, which usually is closer to sRGB.
It seems you are suggesting that for a wide-gamut display it is better to
try using your own monitor's calibration profile on everything out there,
assuming on images posted with a wider gamat it will get you more color
range while there would be nothing lost for images posted in sRGB.
Indeed. The point of color management is to make the specific
characteristics of your monitor not a factor anymore and to make sure that
you see the correct color as described in the working space (almost always
sRGB on the web). This only breaks down when the color to be displayed is
outside of the monitor's gamut. In that case the color will typically get
clipped to the monitor's gamut. The other way around, if your original is in
sRGB and your monitor is closer to adobeRGB, the file's color space is
limiting. For your monitor, you want to make the system (Firefox in this
case) assume that untagged files are in sRGB as that is what the entire
world works in and translate those to the monitor profile. When you
encounter adobeRGB or wider files (extremely rare but does happen), it will
do the right thing and translate from that color space to the monitor
profile.
Wide gamut displays are great but you have to know what you are doing. For
almost everybody, even photographers a standard gamut monitor is often a
better choice. One thing is that you should not use unmanaged browsers on
wide gamut displays as your colors will be completely out of whack even on
calibrated monitors. This limits you to Firefox and Safari. Firefox has the
secret option to enable color management for every image. Safari doesn't
have this. There is one remaining problem, which is flash content on
websites. Flash does not color manage by default and a lot of flash content
will look very garish on your wide gamut display. This includes a lot of
photographer's websites.

LP2475 - best colour calibration settings for stock photography

Hi - I have just purchased the LP2475 and am new at colour calibration. The general colour seems very over saturated.
I am mainly using the monitor it to do 2 main things :
1) using lightroom / pshop and adjusting photos that will be available online for stock photography purchasing.
2) using lightroom /pshop and adjusting panos to print via 2 out-of-house print companies.
I understand that I have to buy a colour calibration device and I will make up custom printer profiles for the 2 different companies where I get my photos printed (one is a canvas & one is a photo printing company).
However, the issue lies in what general calibration settings I should have in lightroom / pshop for my stock photos - because once sold, they will be printed on all various types of printers, and viewed through various types of monitors - most not calibrated. So what are good general settings. It seems very over saturated with colour, and I cannot actually seem to adjust the saturation in the button menu on the monitor as this setting is greyed out.
Thanks
Lucy

I recently bought a Spyder2Pro, which was
recommended
by Scott Kelby, Editor of Photoshop User Magazine,
and am very happy with it. The main difference
between Spyder2Pro and Spyder2 are multiple
monitor
support and more choices for monitor gamma and
tempereature settings. Since I use multiple
monitors, I went for Spyder2Pro, although it was a
bit more pricy (got it for $189 at JR.com). All
my
monitors were calibrated very quickly and I was
amazed how much difference the tool made. If you
have one monitor to calibrate, I think Spyder2
would
be fine (it was $89 at JR.com a few days ago).
One hint with the multiple monitor thing is that on
the Mac, all of these tools just end up generating an
ICC profile that gets assigned to your monitor.
What that means is that they all actually support
multiple monitors, just not all automatically... for
the ones that do not know how to select displays, you
can just move the menu bar to whatever screen you
wish to profile and the software should create a
profile for that screen.
I use the EyeOne and like it a lot. But any hardware
calibrator is better than none.
As a side note, I think using a color temperature of
65k for the monitor and a gamma of 2.2 is really a
good setting to use with any calibrator.
Svendo,
I fully support the comments in this post but still prefer the GM Eye 1. Dont try to do the job with your eye. 99 times out of 100 you will be way off the mark.

Motion for still Photography???

I want to ask you guys if any of you have used Motion for still photography, lets say portraits and more specifically with chromakeys..
the thing is I was looking for doing some stuff with a PS plugin called Primatte Chromakeyer, so I downloaded the demo and its way cool, but dont have the money to buy it right away...
so my thinking got started (it usually does not do anything) but this time I tried using motion on one of the psd samples the Primatte had in their site...
I opened a new motion project and sized it to the sample picture size and change the aspect ratio to square pixels, and then applied my DV Matte Blast from dvgarage.com and it worked out fine, then did the same image using the primatte RT from motion and looked a little better then just exported to a JPEG image and compared the files... they quite looked the same but the color was contrasty just a bit...
so what you experienced motion users think of these matter???
heres the sample image:
http://nogalesdefiesta.com/media/applediscuss/crhomatest.jpg

I made another test, these time I used only the DV Matte Blast on my image,
all other procedure is the same as the first post, so this time I changed the export settings to use the Photoshop setting, it gave me the cut out image with a black backgroung but no alpha, so I had to re-export the image but this time I move the settings so it would just give an alpha (it gave me a black and white image, a matte)...
now in photoshop I just added this matte to an alpha channel to the original image and it gave a good result....
here my latest shot at it:
/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/459/4593102-1.jpg
what I'm getting out of this???
if I just want to change a couple of images it will do the trick...
but still if a want to do more portait stuff, I guess will have to go with the Digital Anarchy Primatte Chromakeyer....
but it certainly works this way, but can't go over 2048x2048 pixels.

How to change the background color only for one HTML-Portlet?

Hi all,
I have created a HTML-Portlet in my root-page. The root page have a style: Main-Style.
I want to change the background-color only for this one HTML-Portlet:
<html>
<header><title>Test</title></header>
<body bgcolor="#999999">
Test
</body>
</html>
But this does not work...
When I use the CSS, then it will change the background-color for the root-page too.
Thans
Leonid Pavlov

could you try this
<table bgcolor="#999999">
<tr>
<td>
test
</td>
</tr>
</table>
I don't think you need <html><header><title>Test</title></header>
<body></body></html> for your HTML-Portlet.

Setting color codes for more than one photo at a time

Is there any way to set color codes for more than one photo at a time?

Hi John,
I will look at keywords. My issue is speed. Right now I am culling and editing an event shoot that spanned a week with 35 separate events and more than 5000 images. So I use the fastest most convenient method I can and it still takes a long time to have a completed and final shoot. On this shoot I will end up with a final set of around 1500 images. Right now I am finishing processing a show that will hang in the Deutsches Amerikanish Zentrum in Stuttgart.
As I am sure you are aware by now, having seen enough of my inane questions that over the last two years or since Lightroom version 1.xx if I could not figure out how to do something I skipped it. So many things in Lightroom are buried and unless you have a mind like a steel trap (and think that some of you guys in the forum do) locating how to do something is not obvious.
For example, I only learned (in the last hour) that I could assign colors as a group of selections by using Shift + number. I found this in a side head in Martin Evenings Lightroom book. I still do not know how to find a way to display the color filter "selection" set in Library mode. Is there a way?
To top it off, Stuttgart Media University asked me if I would add a Lightroom module to my schedule this year. Now I have a compelling reason to learn all those missing pieces that I have created workarounds for. Hence the number of posts you have been seeing from me over the past few of weeks.
I tell my class that there are no such things as stupid questions, only questions. Now I am practicing what I have been preaching for the last gazillion years. Guys like you have been great.
My workflow is
1. I first separate all images by event. I do that at the time of import.
2. I do a fast pass rejecting all the obviously bad images
3. I do a second pass grouping the images by sub-group (speeches, people talking, performances, etc.) This is where I run out of selection methods and your key-wording could work but it would probably take too much time to establish a keyword set for a single event. Where I have more than five subgroups I set up different collection sets with one collection for each sub group. However I would like to keep a single event in one collection.
4. I then select the images to be used by color code.
5. Next I process the final images (crop develop etc) by collection.
6. Last I output the set according to client requirement.
If you have a better workflow, I am all ears.
By the way, what is your photo specialty and where are you located?

Default Colors Limit for Graph in OBIEE 11g

Hi, I'm using OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.6.6)
When I use a graph (either bar or pie), I notice that OBIEE only has 12 default colors to use in the graph. So it starts from blue, red, and so forth, until the 12th color, then for the 13th color it will use the same blue again, and so forth.
The problem is that my column values are more than 12 (it could be 20, it could be 30, etc). So, the repeating colors doesn't make any sense for the graphs.
Could somebody please advise me on how to increase the default number of default colors used by OBIEE (so that it will be like 50 default colors set automatically by OBIEE, just in case)?
Thanks so much!

Hi,
type HexaDecimal colors in google you will find n number of colors with the code number, just use this color codes by adding# before every code in the column format properties.
for ex: #ccc99
Follow this follwoing link

Hi All
Can we apply saved filters to union reports in obiee 11g?
I am able to apply saved filters for normal reports but not for union reports.
The catalog pane is blank, when i click on result columns or each criteria.
The only option i see is to manually create the filters for each criteria, dont i have any choice to use a saved filter for union report?
Is this a bug or something i am unaware. Please guide me
Thanks

Hi manu,
Filter is created based on subject area.we can't use save filter in any other subject areas.
now we can use new filter for union reports.
if Helps please mark as correct.. :)

How do I change the "gray" color selection for icons in Finder to brown?

Is there a way to change the selection of colors offered by the dropdown File menu for desktop and folder icons? I use a lot of color coding for the files and folders in my windows, and gray just looks like "dimmed out" to me.
I know how to get the color wheel in Microsoft Word (or the crayolas, or whatever). Is there a way to do that for Finder as well, without a lot of technical talk (ranges, percentages, etc.) that I can't understand? Thanks for any help out there!

Grey is not the only color showing up.
If you want more colors other than the ones found in Finder, you will need to use a 3rd party product. Something like CandyBar will do the trick or download colorful folders and icons. These softwares can be found on MacUpdate and by doing a Google search.

Color management for flash player with hardware acceleration

I have tested the color management for flash player 10.2 with and without hardware acceleration (GPU) on different PCs with different video cards.
Videos that are played via flash without hardware acceleration on PC have proper color as designed in After Effects.
When I switch on hardware acceleration, the color shifts, for example green becomes lighter, although grey values are OK. I have tried this by writing a small Flash programme for playing a movie; I wrote two programmes one with color management as described in the article "Color correction in Flash Player" http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/quickstart/color_correction_as3.html and another one without color management. In both cases I got the same color shift when hardware acceleration was turned on. From the result I concluded that color management does not work when hardware acceleration is on.
My question is: are there any plans to have color management for flash player with hardware acceleration (GPU) in the near future?
We need to play complex high definition movies streaming through a high speed local area network that need hardware acceleration to avoid stuttering.

Hi, LOL at my screen moniker. That's interesting that the FF beta has an Option for that. The only problem, is that I have heard that each browser must UNcheck the H.A. I'm sure you'll find out.
Hope that works at least for FF. Let me know if you have time.
I've been checking out Apple TV and Google TV. Just saved the links and some info, haven't had time to go further. I'd prefer Apple TV over Google tho.
I have a 55" HD Sony/Blu-ray Surround Sound Speakers, etc. I hooked up the VGA cable for Internet, and WOW on the Screen/Monitor!! Now I'm thinking about the iPhone 4 with VZ too, on their pre-order list for 2/3/11!
Hard to keep up with the Technology, moving faster today for some reason.
We are under the Snow & Ice warning, getting it now. Hope I don't lose power! If so, I'll be offline for sure.
If I find anything on that H.A. for IE, I'll let you know.
Thanks,
