nooooooooooooooooooo.. white balance is when you normalize the neutral tones in your color photo with the light sources so the colors don't come off too warm (yellowish) or too cold (blueish). You also adjust for green to magenta casts. It's basically the same as adjusting your TV for tint and hue.

would still like to know how you get the speia effect done, tried to get the colors looking like youres (which i like alot) but with no big luck.
as for daves second version.. it looks better than the pure bw but the kids look somehow odd as if they are missing some parts here and there

If you have iPhoto for the Mac, it's dead easy. Other photo programs will do it easily too. You just chose the sepia effect from the menu, I also tweaked the settings a bit but here's an examplemac wrote:would still like to know how you get the speia effect done, tried to get the colors looking like youres (which i like alot) but with no big luck.

Here's how you do a nice black-white conversion of a colour photo in Photoshop. First convert the colourphoto to grayscale, then you get the Duotone option in the Image>Mode menu. Chose it, PS will ask you for a preset. Goto the PS folder, there's a presets folder with duotones folder. Select the Pantone quadtones. And suddenly your dull grayscale photo has turned into a great BW pic. Example:

I made a few adjustments to the colours too to really bring out the "character" of the woods. A little level adjustment, and subtle tweaks to the colour balance and brightness reveal previously unseen detail. Hope you like it.

Sorry guys..no wallpapers available because:
A) Most of the recent originals are all lost b/c HD crashed and burned(no backup). This includes the three nature shots.
B) The other images are archived on my portable photo storage unit at the office.
C) The film images are scanned for web size so I'm not gonna re-scan.
C) I'm too lazy to look, edit, and upload.
S O R R Y !!

That's what I thought too... Why are there so many of them? Couldn't you get that shot with 3 or 4 photos?Dave wrote:I thought the joins were vertical blinds in the window DB.

my ps skills suck pretty much.. thats the best i can do till mr.x gets of his lazy ass
can't do anything with the frog
as for the panorama, sometimes less images give you a better result
