[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]My name is Jayanand Govindaraj, and I live in Chennai (formerly Madras), India. I just joined a couple of days ago, because I suddenly acquired two Leica IIIf and two M3 (with lenses) as a part of a purchase of a collection. Quite a few names are familiar to me from the Rollei list, though. If you are interested in toning via Photoshop, I suggest you have a look at the toning section of Paul Butzi's site at http://www.butzi.net/articles/toning.htm . Very nice, with curves that you can modify to your taste. The latest Photokit Colour also has a lot of split tones, written by Martin Evening (I think), which are a little exotic for my taste. However the info is at http://www.pixelgenius.com/color/index.html .
