I think Corel bought them recently.<BR/><BR/>Funny you see all my color photos at my personal blog - I do that for all the people who need to know what the flowers actually look like.<BR/><BR/>My art photos at pbase are all black and white too...<BR/><BR/>http://www.pbase.com/marybell//<BR/><BR/>CMYK is something you do when you go into the Image menu - you can select to split the image into color components. I use CMYK. I pair the colors depending on what I am trying enhance in a photo. For instance if I want deep greens and blues I will go to the slide for cyan and yellow and pull the colors down (slightly) in curves and then I will go to magenta and black and pull those up slightly in curves. Then you recombine the image to see the results.<BR/><BR/>I actually use CMYK to develop a tonal range beneficial to converting my images into the type of black and whites that I like. <BR/><BR/>The changes in curves need be slight to produce dynamic changes in the tonal range and depth in the image.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03418200517338216765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7960216744686471309.post-32267327646063599312008-07-09T21:39:00.000+01:002008-07-09T21:39:00.000+01:00This sounds interesting - I didn't quite understan...This sounds interesting - I didn't quite understand the 'CMYK is Jasc' bit - do you have a link to this on the web somewhere? <BR/><BR/>It does strike me that using gradient filters on the camera would allow the same whole dynamic range to be captured without any computer faffing!David Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14526890235036870086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7960216744686471309.post-68889445275632944892008-07-09T21:23:00.000+01:002008-07-09T21:23:00.000+01:00I think my method of using CMYK is Jasc yields sim...I think my method of using CMYK is Jasc yields similar results - except that I am not into saturated/tonal images... :) These are beautiful - I am particularly drawn to the top one and would love to see it in black and white.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03418200517338216765noreply@blogger.com
