Hi-tech photo aid


from the computier , COMPUTER photographic manipulation' was the subject of Ribblesdale Camera Club's recent meeting. , ?


?The demonstration, of the programme, ^ . . .


Photoshop 7, proved a fascinating evening. Mr Norman Piper, from IBury, used a high- quality digital projector, coupled with a veiy compact, but high-capability computer. This allowed him to present a menu of possibilities,' so that the audience could steer the direction of the series of short talks and demonstra­


tions. Most of . the normal darkroom effects could


be reproduced on the computer, for example, darkening the corners of the pictures and^ lightiening or darkening other parts.'Better ways .were shown for increasing sharpneM,'-


‘‘‘^'■Vcdntrast'arid colour saturation, orfortummg, a colour print into apimchy black-and-wMte, image.' The making of realistic frames iriound pictures was also shown. ? More complex was the creation of re^istic


skies where the original was grey. This,was done a; number of ways, particularly,by adding a graduated blue sky colour wherever a white,area was found. Ideal for a bland sky, but a further trick was needed to turn the sheep and rabbits back to white from blue. Finally, Mr Piper presented a slideshow of,
