Marquinius Posted April 4, 2009 Share #3 Posted April 4, 2009 Cat or no cat: this is one fine photo! And the toning is awesome. Gorman? Or something new you tried? Marco Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are very generous indeed. And yes Gents, there is a cat in there somewhere - a very big, beautiful cat ( Jaap got it bang on) ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharookh Posted April 5, 2009 Author Share #8 Posted April 5, 2009 Cat or no cat: this is one fine photo! And the toning is awesome. Gorman? Or something new you tried? Marco Marco - I'm a creature of habit - it's Gorman all the way. I've just started enjoying experimenting with this method. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigi bertolotti Posted April 5, 2009 Share #9 Posted April 5, 2009 Wonderful image, and I confess that without your hint I had never spotted a cat... ... but Jaap's allusion on "eyes" made me find it... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marquinius Posted April 5, 2009 Share #10 Posted April 5, 2009 Sharookh, I also keep on coming back to Gorman and will probably build some kind of workflow incorporating the best of LAB, Gorman and some other tricks. What settings did you use for this rendering? I mean color, percentages, etc. in the Gorman method? Marco Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

albert Posted April 5, 2009 Share #13 Posted April 5, 2009 Nice Who is Gorman ? Where is the cat ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravastar Posted April 5, 2009 Share #14 Posted April 5, 2009 NiceWho is Gorman ? Where is the cat ? Albert, here's the information . Do a Google search for 'Gorman-Holbert B&W Conversion.atn' for the Photoshop action. The cat is just over half way down, aproximately one third the way in from the right. Two bright eyes and a striped chest. It's just underneath a reed head. Bob. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharookh Posted April 6, 2009 Author Share #19 Posted April 6, 2009 Sharookh, I also keep on coming back to Gorman and will probably build some kind of workflow incorporating the best of LAB, Gorman and some other tricks. What settings did you use for this rendering? I mean color, percentages, etc. in the Gorman method? Marco Marco - I tend to start the rendering with RGB being in the region of approximately 70% / 45% / 35%. Then once I multiply the layer, I fiddle the warmth of the colour to taste along with an adjustment of curves. I think the most important aspect here is the calibration of my monitor - that helps a great deal! Hope that helps - Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marquinius Posted April 6, 2009 Share #20 Posted April 6, 2009 Sharookh, Thanks for the update, it was the RGB setting I was wondering about. Finding the right tone is kind of a quest .. Monitor calibration: always! Marco Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
