Photoshop - New color conversion
Aug 20, 2021 07:46:18 #
I updated my Creative Cloud stuff from Adobe, and saw the new Neural Filters which include the "Colorize" filter. I have quite a few B&W prints and negatives that I had, so I took a picture of my mom, her brother and sister, and gave it a try.
It literally took seconds to come up with a satisfactory colorized copy. There are adjustments to fine tune, and more work can be done as the colorize output is a layer. Not bad for a "beta" feature!

That's a great feature. I've used some free online services. It's interesting to see what they come up with. If you don't like the color of the clothing, you can try again until you get what you want.

I've tried that and found it's not quite ready for prime time. Your results are quite nice.

Flesh colors are the key to a successful colorization, IMO. And it has to work for all races. This one looks like it did a good job for these Caucasian folks, except for the flesh colored socks.

Not bad at all! Now you need to the spooky one that animates the photo!

You could be right, but back then there were shortages of stockings and flesh colored anklet stockings were worn.

I thought I was old, but I don't remember that! My Mom and sisters all wore those white anklets.

Those too! My Aunt had a big job in NYC when I was very small. She wore little flesh colored nylons under her high heels. Somehow still stuck in my mind.Aug 20, 2021 16:34:14 #

I have to agree with Bob, but it's getting better and after all it's still in beta

Orange skin tones do not look natural.
Nevertheless, pro photographers in the U.S. use a CTO ("color temperature orange") filter for two reasons: One, doing so reduces processing time spent on achieving a natural skin tone. Two, the photographer can submit an invoice sooner.
Along the way, the viewing public has become programmed to accept orange skin tones by persistent use.
