I don't want to use a flash because it forces me to use to use small an aperture and I need to fuzz out the background. Also, I hate the cold, images that my flash produces as well as the reflections that seem to be there no matter what angle I point the flash from. Using a blue light is just too much of a hassle with the bulbs blowing out all the time. I'm using an R with an R lens making this a legitimate Leica posting. In any case I'de like to use Photoshop 4.0 to process the scans in order to eliminate the yellow tones from the artificial light. Is this easily do-able without loosing image quality or having to spend hours playing with the RGB settings? Does anyone know how??? (magic button maybe) Thanks Javier - ----- Original Message ----- From: Jacques Bilinski <jbilin@axionet.com> To: <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> Sent: Wednesday, August 25, 1999 11:33 PM Subject: Re: [Leica] Bike (w/Leica content) > > > > > > > Rob McClure: > > > I was just thinking (a scarey thought) Does anyone want to talk > > > about great bicycles?
