Turn Day To Night

Taking a photo during the day is typical, bright, and may competitive side images. Changing a day photo to one looking as tho taken at night and vignetting gives a different story. Here the fishing ship "Virgin de Lourdes" appears to be just coming into port after a long day at sea.

After struggling to edit some fine parts, I am prompted to buy an edit pad the trackball or a mouse just does not do well. Your thoughts?

The way the light falls off it looks like it was shot with a flash.

Nicely done. I use the day to night LUT in ACR to start the process. I use a Huion pad occasionally. I got it when I had a repetitive motion problem with my mouse. I never mastered it but it has possibilities if I had patience

Thank you bdk and John for your comments. Yes, the dark adds drama and your right John a flash would do that limited area effect. As you implied bdk, the original photo was so cluttered I had come up with a way of limit the image to a focused dramatic story about one particular boat.

Curmudgeon LUT is an interesting tool, I have. When I got my Kidney scan, couple of stones, but OK... any way to read the data the tech gave me at my request, I had to find a way of viewing. The program is a pro program from a Scandinavian University... whats it called? Any way later this week I will show an egg cooked with LUT.

Here is one I found based on your reference.

This one uses PS

Now you you got me thinking. As Jack mentioned using the LUT in Photoshop. Along with a light to dark gradient. I will have to play around with this idea.

In the past, I have used Negative Images of my work at hand, and done work on the Negative image and then Negative again to go back to the original lighting and coloration. What you see in the negative is in a different world and what you decide to edit or remove becomes more obvious.

The free XRay CRT program. The program has a large pseudo-color library.. LUT choice.
The free download and tutorials are at:
