  Q. "High Key" Processing
   
Asked by      (K=907) on 1/15/2005

As always, multiple choices... I would make a copy of your background layer, set to color dodge mode, add an adjustment layer for curves and adjust to a S-shaped curve to enhance the midtones contrast. Voilà. Regards, Carsten

Thanks Cartsen! I will give it a spin! Best regards, Patrick

I forgot to say, first desaturate ;-)

Hi Patrick, i've helped a couple of people with this trick and can send you the info should you wish. I use PSE 3.0 but the principle is the same.
Drop me a line with your email and i'll send it to you.
Best wishes Neil

Although more a relief then a photo its simply done with curves middle part pulled up then desaturated.

Now if you want a really good solarisation then listen up.

make the curves go all the way up then all the way down then all the way up on the curves function.
if you then inverse this it also changes the solarisation effect.

simple but effective especially on metal.

Hi Neil, I'm also working with an older version of Photoshop and would love to see your technique. My email is: bluedepths@hotmail.com. Thank you very much for your help.

Pat, Thanks for asking this question. I had seen the picture you referenced before and wondered how it was done.

Hi Neil,
Like Lilli S I would appreciate if you could send me your pointers. I am using Photoshop 7 but I'm sure principles will be the same. Thanks in advance. My email address is kristron@westnet.com.au
