Keep who you are and give me the rest by Ali Cavanaugh Another website I am currently developing is for the Katrina Lasko Gallery. The site features an Artist's section which contains a selection of images by each of the artists represented by the gallery. The image of the painting above appeared to be lacking in dynamic range. Not having access to the actual painting I had to be careful not to alter the color of the painting if possible, just increase the range of values. Looking at the Levels for the image, we can see the image is lacking on either end of the histogram. I adjusted the three triangles as shown which produced the image below. Often, increasing the Contrast a little can also help the image. I increased the Contrast to 10 (Image > Adjustments > Brightness and Contrast). I find increasing the Contrast by 5-10 can bring out more color and depth as shown below. Here is a before and after. The difference is impressive. And all it took was a few simple adjustments.
