CurveMeister 3
Posted in Color Science, Extremely Extreme Photoshop on Dec 30th, 2007
Mike Russell’s CurveMeister, v3, is simply incredible.
sRGB vs. aRGB in Photographic Output
Posted in Color Science on Dec 28th, 2007
The sRGB Color Space is predicated upon the D65 illuminant (which is different than natural 6500K light) and has an effective Gamma of 2.2 (although its actual Gamma is variable throughout the curve-it is nearly linear in the extreme low key). sRGB was not created for use specifically on color managed equipment or under the [...]
The Gradient Map
Posted in Extremely Extreme Photoshop on Dec 22nd, 2007
Gradient Maps can produce some very interesting effects. Given clever manipulations, including Transparency adjustments, Blending Modes, and their application in tandem with Filters to manipulate Layer Masks, Gradient Maps prove themselves to be extraordinarily controllable and powerful tools.

Mike Russell has produced an intriguing exercise in applied color theory on his Curvemeister site. I’ve reviewed Curvemeister for PAPA and submitted a strong “Recommend” at a recent lecture in Van Nuys, but haven’t yet had the opportunity to explore the latest version in depth. That will come, prior to the upcoming presentation in Redondo [...]
