I wanted to try a different view of the houseplant scene from the previous post. For this attempt I managed to switch off the yellow solar lights that were giving an orange-ish colour to some of the background. Here are the results using pairs of images in the comparison slider feature (note that the alignment is not perfect – things moved between daylight and nighttime!) :<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To illuminate the scene I used an Ultra Violet torch to ‘paint with light’. This works well but takes time to do the whole scene in one go which would cause the background illumination to intrude. To overcome this I paint a portion of the scene at a time and assemble the 32 images in Photoshop to create the scene using layers – this is what the layers look like in Photoshop:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But I also like to experiment with ‘blending modes’ in Photoshop to draw out the colours. Here are some examples using the comparison slider technique – the original UV fluorescence image is on the left:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think I prefer the first blend version!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
