1 In Search of... the PERFECT B&W Print B y J e f f S c h e w e Additional Notes: schewephoto.com/workshop

2 The Object is to Convert from Color...

3 To Optimized B&W

4 To Final Print...in Neutral Tones

5 Or Warm Tones...

6 Or Sepia Tones...

7 Or Cold Tones...

8 Or Split Tones...

9 But First, You Must Learn to Convert... C o l o r to B & W.

10 When You Shoot Color You Also Capture a Variety of B&W Flavors...

11 The Red Channel Represents a Wratten 29 Separation Filter

12 The Green Channel Represents a Wratten 61 Separation Filter

13 The Blue Channel Represents a Wratten 47 Separation Filter

14

15

16

17 Photoshop s Default Panchromatic Conversion... Red: 30% Green: 60% Blue: 10%

18 Keep The Total Sum to 100% You CAN Use Negative Numbers...

19 Other Methods of Color to B&W Conversions...

20 Hue / Saturation De-Saturation

21 Convert to Lab

22 DUAL Hue / Saturation Adjustment Layers The Russell Brown Method.

23 Photoshop CS3 s Black and White adjustment.

24 However, These B&W Conversion Methods are GLOBAL...

25 You Can Not Easily Fine-Tune the Results, LOCALLY.

26 Using Color Channels as B&W Layers... Easy to Fine-Tune Locally.

27 Start With an RGB Color Image...

28 Then Duplicate the Original Color Image.

29 You ll Have The Original Color Image... And a Duplicate of the Original Color Image.

30 Then, Convert the Duplicate Image to Grayscale...

31 The Duplicate will be Photoshop Default... About Red: 30%, Green 60%, Blue 10%

32 Target the Color Image, Blue Channel, Select All & Copy...

33 Target the Grayscale Image & Paste.

34 Target the Color Image, Green Channel, Select All & Copy...

35 Target the Grayscale Image & Paste.

36 Target the Color Image, Red Channel, Select All & Copy...

37 Target the Grayscale Image & Paste.

38 In the Grayscale Layered Document, Add Layer Masks...

39 Layer Masks Added, the Additional Layers are Hidden...

40 Local Adjustments Using Layer Masks...

41 I ve Even Given You an Action...

42 Why Keep the Color Image Open? To Provide a Source of Color Based Selections...

43 Using Color Range to Create a Color Based Selection...

44 Use a Selection Tool...

45 Drag the Selection-then Hold the Shift Key...

46 Use the Color Based Selection on the Grayscale Mask...

47 The Color Original...

48 The Photoshop Default...

49 The Color Channel > B&W Layer Conversion...

50 Adding a Color Tone to a B&W Image...

51 Converting the Grayscale Image Back to RGB...

52 Create a Hue / Saturation Adjustment Layer...

53 Hue/Saturation Colorize Option Adjust the Hue...

54

55 Adjust the Saturation...

56

57 Create a Color Balance Adjustment Layer...

58 Warming the Highlights...

59

60 Cooling the Shadows...

61

62 Custom Grayscale Conversion

63 Adding a Colorize Hue / Saturation Adjustment Layer

64 Adjusting the Saturation

65 Color Balance Layer - Adjusting the Highlights Warmer

66 Color Balance Layer - Adjusting the Shadows Cooler

67 OK, Now Ya Got a Nice B&W Image... Now What?

68 COLOR MANAGEMENT!

69 Because in Order to Print... Color Management is Required.

70 More Options... Allows you to selection important parameters...

71 Adjusting Gray Gamma... When Working in RGB Gray Setting Should Match Gamma But Dot Gain When Working in CMYK

72 Adjusting Gray Gamma... Gray Gamma Should Match Your Photoshop RGB Working Space Adobe RGB = 2.2 ColorMatch RGB = 1.8 ProPhoto RGB = 1.8 srgb = 2.2

73 Saved Color Settings... Deselect: Ask When Pasting Ask When Opening: Missing Profiles It s Useful to Know when an Image doesn t Match.

74 It s Useful to Know when an Image doesn t Match. But, you ll ALWAYS Want to Convert on Paste and Selecting a Profile When Opening is Silly...You Can t See the Image So...How Will You Know it s Correct?

75 You ll Need to Properly Use Photoshop CS3 s Print Dialog

76 Let Photoshop Determine Colors

77 And Then The Print Driver... In This Case, Epson...

78 The Print Settings

79 The Printer Color Management - OFF

80 What About Epson s UltraChrome K3 Printers?

81 No Color Management From Photoshop...

82 No Color Management

83 The Advanced B&W Photo Mode

84 The Advanced B&W Photo Mode

85 Printer Color Management Settings for Advanced B&W

86 Adjusting the Base Tone Settings - Dark

87 Adjusting the Color Tone

88 Adjusting the Color Tone - Cool

89 Adjusting the Color Tone - Warm

90 Adjusting the Color Tone - Sepia

91 Adjusting the Color Tone - Custom Warm
