Removing spikes in image

I want to remove the spikes in the red,green & blue channels.  When I create a curve adjustment layer above the image, then tweak the highlights my results are more spikes in the histogram, I want as best as possible a nice wave in the histogram.
Image upload
For those in the East Coast, ICE Creme time is roughly three months away, wheather you fancy regular ICE creme or non-dairy ICE creme

With a large white background, of course you're going to have a spike in the Histogram at the right end.

  • How do I remove Canon " My Image Garden" from the desktop when turning on my computer ?

    How do I remove Canon " My Image Garden" from the desktop when turning on my computer ?  I have the icon but the program starts up and I have to delete it manually  from the desktop to clear my screen for other work...

    Are you using a Windows or a Mac? What you're seeing (the backwards L shaped menu) is probably the Canon Quick Menu. If you have a Mac you can go into your applications, select Canon Utilities, then drag Canon Quick menu to the trash and empty trash can. On Windows you'd go to the control panel, select Programs and Features (or Uninstall Program/Add or Remove Program) and uninstall the Canon Quick Menu. Not required for all the normal functions of the printer. You can do the same thing for My Image Garden. Also not required.

  • Having difficulty using quick selection tools to remove background form images. Any help appreciated

    Hello All,
    I am trying to remove background from images using the 3 different selection tools.  I start off fine, but ultimately the entire images keeps getting grabbed which ever tool I am using.  It is easier if you are using a pro version of photoshop and not any of the elements versions?  I have elements 11.
    Thanks

    So much depends on the image itself to determine which tool is most appropriate. Another tool to try is the selection brush, where you literally paint in what you want to select.

    Sounds that you installed a Persona.
    You can uninstall your current Persona and revert to the Default theme (Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

    Pradeep,
    there shouldn't be any problems. Alternatively, simply replace them with a transparent 1x1 pixel gif, so that so at least have a valid image.

  • How do I lighten or remove dark/black images or layers in Photoshop CS5?

    For several months, I have been trying to find the best ways to reduce the excessive amount of toner that is required to print many pdf documents in black and white, or even grayscale.  I use Leanprint but it can still leave pages of dark and black images.    
    Several Adobe Acrobat X posts say to use Photoshop to remove black graphics and/or reduce the darkness of images.  However, they give no further information about what to do in Photoshop.  I am not a simpleton but I know very little about Photoshop other than that there are probably several ways to accomplish this, depending on the circumstances.  I dread having to spend more hours trying to figure out what is the best option to use in each specific situation.
    It is puzzling that it has been so difficult to find the information needed, especially since many other people would like this information as well.
    I hope that someone can advise me or just point me to some directions and resources  as places to start.   Even knowing the best search terms to find this information could be useful.
    Thank you for any assistance.
    Cathy

    Ok, something to keep in mind with CS5 photoshop any change of its brightness and or contrast usually is considered a permanent change.
    However if your image is a camera raw file (straight from the camera in its native raw format) a tiff or a jpg, you can and should open the file in Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) as any edits done in ACR are non-destructible in that any changes made can be changed or reset at any later time in the future as it does not alter the image it self, but applies the edits to the metadata.
    That said, it means in order for a program to see those changes it needs the ability to read the metadata, which not all programs can do.
    In ACR you will find a contrast slider, by decreasing the contrast the image will become lighter. You can also increase the highlights or whites and you can decrease the shadows or blacks. This effectively is similar to lowering the contrast, but because it is an additional step, you can do all three sliders effectively reducing the contrast even further than you would be moving the contrast slider by itself.
    Since this is a metadata alteration, this change you made can be applied to a folder full of images that are the same formats I mentioned above, or you can select a group of images in bridge and apply to just the selected group.
    At any time in the future you can remove the edits should you need to use the original image once again.

  • Dashboard flickr image removal.  How do I remove a flickr image from the Dashboard?!

    I forgot how I managed to creat a little image window with someone's flickr image into my Dashboard, but now I can't get rid of it.  The image has no live links only an edit button that allows you to move the image within its box.  I tried going to flickr to see if any images had the option of importing them to the Dashboard, but that isn't an option.....how the heck I got it to the Dashboard in the first place I don't remember.  Regardless I want the image gone and it doesn't have delete to remove it.  Help!

    If you really mean Dashboard, that's where your widgets are, in which case you hit the plus key ( + ) in the lower left corner and then click the X on the widget you want to delete. But if you meant the Dock, you click and drag it off and it disappears in a puff of smoke.

  • How do I remove the "mirror" image on the front camera?

    After I take photos on the front camera to say a "selfie" the image is then flipped and saved. I research online and people say it's what the camera sees (like looking into a mirror) and that's how we really look in real life but I can prove this to not be true!! Here is why, I have a beauty mark on my face on the left side and when I take a selfie my iPhone saves it to show it on the right!! And when I look into an actual mirror it's obviously on left where it should be not on the right!! IS THERE a way to remove this on the new iPhone?!? All apple product seem to do this!! iPhone, iPads even my Mac! But this not true on regular cameras. HELPPP this issue is making me not get another iPhone for I travel for a living and take tons of pics.

    iPhone 5 plain.  iOS 7.1.2.  Virgin Mobile.  Had it about a month.
    I noticed that all of the selfies I had taken with Instagram were reversed.  This was odd to realize; I have had the phone for a month, and when I see a reversed selfie it looks normal to me ... I part my hair on the left, and I didn't notice that all of my avatars for things had my hair parted on the wrong side.  I was reviewing some Facebook photos and it was very obvious that some of my pics have my hair parted on the wrong side.  It was kind of weird figuring out that the ones that looked right were the wrong ones...
    So I played around a bit.  With the built in camera app, when I am framing a selfie, it sure would be awkward to try to center yourself in the picture if the image wasn't reversed.  I've had devices with front-facing cameras where you could un-reverse the image, and it is quite disorienting to try to center yourself.  So I get WHY the image is reversed (one of the reasons at least).  I noticed too that when I snap the selfie with the built-in camera app, that the picture un-mirrors as it takes.  There is a brief animation as the image flips side-to-side.
    For me and my phone/situation, it is when I use Instagram to take pictures from the front-facing camera.  Instagram just seems to grab the actual image from the screen, and not do the un-mirroring that the built in photo app uses.  So, my solution is to not use the Instagram app to snap the actual selfie, but to use the built in phone app to take it, then afterwards I open the photo in instagram and do my tweaking.  Just slightly less than elegant for now, I am hoping that a future Instagram update will give you control on whether to un-mirror the front-facing camera.  But I see this as my phone working correctly, and the app itself being the thing that is buggy.  In my case.

  • How to remove background on image

    Hi I would like to make the background on the attached image white and to manipulate the silver jewellery on the image attached so that it shows up clearly against the white.
    I've tried all sorts of things but found that either the image blends into the background when white or the silver does not look metallic any more.  I have around 100 images that I need to edit in this way for my website so any advise would really be appreciated.
    Here is a link to some sample pictures
    http://littlewonders.no/index.php?page=details&prod=37&cat=43&group=
    As you can see the back ground is different on each image and does not look professional.
    Thanks in advance

    Silver on white is very much contrast dependent and the base of that starts with the original photo. I think what you are looking for is a look like this.
    This is just camera. For instance if you where taking photos of each piece, I would have the camera on a tripod and locked in position with the while layer drop to place each piece on. Each photo would be the same angle same lightness.
    This issue you have trying to remove the white background is that silver is mostly white, so removing the background is very tricky from the start, also removing the background you remove the shadows that give it a more realistic appearance.
    restaging and reshooting all the images would be much faster then trying to remove the backgrounds on a 100 images of silver pieces and make them look right.
    You may concider a black satan background behind the silver pieces too black tends to show off the silver much more brightly then white would.

  • Remove Link from image

    Hi,
    I have just converted an MS Word 2013 doc into PDF via the MS Word Export utility. This worked great, however, when I hover over any of the images that are part of the document, a yellow box appears showing a path to the location from where the image originated on my hard drive.  I went back to the Word doc and removed all Metadata, then exported it to PDF once again, but again, the path still shows when you hover over an image.  This is not restricted to the PC I used to create the doc.  When I transfer the PDF file to another PC, the path still shows.
    Does anyone know how to prevent this?  I'm using the free Adobe Reader XI version 11.0.07
    Many thanks

    Reader can't create PDF files. You're using an internal function of Word, so your question should be asked on a Word forum.

  • Can I remove files from "images removed from" dir?

    I have some duplicate files on my iMac, including some large videos in a "images removed from xxxxxxx" directory. Can I safely delete these?

    Yes, you can delete this additional "images removed from ...." vault, if you do not need this backup of older videos. It contains all photos/videos, that have been backed up in your vault, and have been removed, because they are no longer in your Aperture library. remove this vault only, if you do not want to keep this videos or have other backups of them.
    See Frank Caggiano's answer here:  Re: Folder labeled "Images Removed from Aperture Vault #1"
    But I am puzzled: Why are these vaults on your iMac? Are they on your system drive or on a second internal drive? Vaults are best kept on a drive different from the drive where the library is kept. Otherwise they will be of no use, if the drive should fail and needs to be restored.
