I have a picture of a bear cub in the woods. This is a point, shoot, and pray type shooting situation. It isn’t really the time to check histogram previews and re-adjust the exposure.
The green channel has the most data in the shadowed areas of the fur. I am trying to replace the blue channel data with the data in the green one. Once I can do that, I will be working with a masked version to limit the changes to the fur
I am trying to go through the tutorial at:
www.webdesign.org/web/photoshop/tutorials/replacing-a-defect ive-channel.136.html
All seems to be fine until I get to "Deleting the content of the blue channel removes the noise…" about halfway down the page.
The picture of the Channels pane shows a blank WHITE view of the blue channel.
I suspect that the pictures were from a Mac.
I can delete the blue channel completely and can get the blue preview box fully blue. What I can’t do it empty everything out of it leaving the channel behind.
In Windows CS, is the blue filled box the equivalent of the white box in the tutorial? If not, how do I go about emptying it?
Thank you for your time in reading this.
