1 Color Filtering October 26-28, 2007 San Jose, California by R. Jay GaBany

2 The role of color This is a personal view R. Jay GaBany, 2

3 The purpose of color data Provides tint for a more natural appearance as a metaphor for chemical composition Stimulates an emotional response from the viewer Provides additional luminance data when summed Contains rich structural information when used as a filter R. Jay GaBany, 3

4 The challenges of color data Time consuming to collect Complex to process Significant source of noise R. Jay GaBany, 4

5 Collecting color data Binning color exposures Reduces data collection time Results in lower initial noise Relatively easy to saturate Produces very satisfying results R. Jay GaBany, 5

6 Collecting color data Unbinned color exposures Increases exposure efficiency Can be summed to create additional luminance data Can be saturated with multiple techniques Can be used as a filter to surface structural information lost during binning R. Jay GaBany, 6

7 5 ways to overcome color saturation Blurred saturation layering reference: Rob Gendler Shadow/highlight tool reference: Adam Block Screen/soft light/luminance layering Color dodge layering Match Color tool R. Jay GaBany, 7

8 Blurred saturation layering R. Jay GaBany, 8

9 Method 1: Blurred saturation layering 1. Select Luminosity layer (upper layer) and duplicate 2. Select Layer 1 copy (the new upper layer) 3. Select middle layer and change to Color mode R. Jay GaBany, 9

10 Method 1: Blurred saturation layering 1. Select Gaussian Blur tool 2. Set Gaussian Blur tool between.5 and 1.0 R. Jay GaBany, 10

11 Method 1: Blurred saturation layering 1. Change Opacity of Layer 1 to 50% R. Jay GaBany, 11

12 Method 1: Blurred saturation layering 1. Merge Down Layer 1 onto Background Layer R. Jay GaBany, 12

13 Method 1: Blurred saturation layering 1. Select Saturation tool 2. Set tool to between 15 and 35 based on the quality of the color data. Setting the saturation tool too high may introduce color noise 3. Re-select the Luminosity layer (top layer) to view the result R. Jay GaBany, 13

14 Shadow/Highlight tool R. Jay GaBany, 14

15 Method 2: Shadow/Highlight tool 1. Select Background Layer and copy 2. Select Background copy layer 3. Select Shadow/Highlight tool R. Jay GaBany, 15

16 Method 2: Shadow/Highlight tool 1. Set Shadows Amount, Tonal Width and Radius to zero percent 2. Set Highlights Amount and Tonal width to 50% and Radius to 100 px 3. Set Adjustments Midtone Contrast to zero 4. Set color Correction to a positive number Avoid high Correction values to avoid adding color noise. Best results are obtained if this method is used when stretching RGB data. R. Jay GaBany, 16

17 Screen/soft light/luminance layering R. Jay GaBany, 17

18 Method 3: Screen/soft light/luminance layering (first pass) 1. De-select Luminosity layer (top layer) 2. Select Background layer (bottom layer) 3.

20 Method 3: Screen/soft light/luminance layering (first pass) 1. Select Background copy layer 2. Change property to Soft Light R. Jay GaBany, 20

21 Method 3: Screen/soft light/luminance layering (first pass) 1. Select Background copy 2 layer 2. Merge Down Background copy 2 layer onto Background copy layer The image will appear dark, so 3. Re-select the Luminosity layer R. Jay GaBany, 21

23 Method 3: Screen/soft light/luminance layering (second pass) 1. De-select Luminosity layer (top layer) 2. Select Background layer (bottom layer) 3. Right mouse-click on image and select duplicate layer 4. Repeat duplicate layer This results in four layers: 1. Layer 1 2. Background copy 2 3. Background copy 4. Background R. Jay GaBany, 23

24 Method 3: Screen/soft light/luminance layering (second pass) 1. Select Background copy 2 layer 2. Change property to Screen R. Jay GaBany, 24

25 Method 3: Screen/soft light/luminance layering (second pass) 1. Select Background copy layer 2. Change property to Soft Light R. Jay GaBany, 25

51 Groping in the Dark Something very special can only be seen and experienced when looking through an eyepiece or gazing directly up at the heavens. Our eyes allow us to touch the stars and no picture can reproduce that. So, this is my attempt to offer the best alternative I can muster without having you standing with me and my instrument while we share a dark night sky together. Each of us are searching for a spark of truth but without one another, (I believe,) we are simply groping in the dark. R. Jay GaBany, 51
