I bought a ton Reala for a good deal, but everything is coming out green. I spent a long time trying to eradicate the green haze from this photo. The whites of the lad's eyes were green and so on. I am posting a really large picture because my concern is not so much with composition, but colour. Please point out anything because I have spent far too much time fighting green to know where the other colours look off.

Thanks a bunch.

Oh and Nick, if you read this, this is my new son. I will be posting pictures of him at my desk.

13 views (a couple of them mine) makes me think this forum is dead. Oh well. I started from scratch again. I am still not happy with the colour. I need help!



This one isn't spotted.

I've noticed that with a lot of fujifilm products the greens/blues tend to be very prominent. So it could just be one of the characteristics of the film. I've shot Superia 200 and even with that I've noticed the greens seem to be very exaggerated. I sort of enjoyed the effect, as I was shooting nature.

For example here's two of my shots with superia.






I must admit, though, the greens are pretty crazy and do seem out of place. Did you try messing with the hue?

The problem is also that I work on these at 3 in the morning. Reala is supposed to be magenta (not that that is a great thing). I just don't know what to do with this little green boy, he is so frustrating.

I had a plug-in recommended to me, called Nik soft which allows you to remove colour casts, so I removed green and removed magenta. Then I did a ton of selective selective colour adjustments.

Tonight I will start from scratch again.

I know nobody is reading this, but I decided to adjust his teeth and the whites of his eyes by cloning the sidewalk onto them at 1% and then I could adjust the other colours. Here is what I came up with (no spotting was done)

Posted by argonian I know nobody is reading this,

Well, just lurking maybe

Isn't he adorable? I just had to rub his head.

Good job on the re-do. Looks much more accurate.

Thanks. Never use Reala on people. For buildings it is passable, but the greens and the magenta's are out of control!

I'm so sick of looking at this kid.

Don't worry, I will email you more pictures tonight.

That last one still looks a little too red, but at least he's no longer green.

Ha! You are practically begging me to email you more and more copies of this young lad.

Yes.. please forward all future variations of this photo to [email protected]

lolz.

I can't stop trying. I am going to print this one tomorrow. Hopefully it is ok.

I dedicate this thread to micro.

^Looks like there's still a lot of magenta, I took a stab at it, any better?

Thanks, sweetiepie. I am going to do all further adjustments at the shop. I am tired of this cute green boy.

POOP! I just got back an 11 by 11 of this fellow and he is still a bit green in the shadows. You have to look for it, but once you see it, it is all you see (by you, I of course mean me).
