Hi Folks.

If i have posted the image correctly ou can see me on the right and my 2 boys on left. Myself and the smallest boy right side of the face is very bright along with my legs, I have tried to darken it so i can see more detail in them area's. I have used the curves, gone into indiviual colors the rgb and adusted them indivually along with the brush tool and picking another lighter shade but as i paint on the bright areas nothing happens?????? i have tried the shadow highlights and advanced shadow highlights but it works on the bright area's but the rest of the picture is very very dark

Can anybody help as the boys love thos picture


Kind regards Josel

This is difficult to do well, since the sunlight caused your legs to overexpose in the photo. As a result, there's a lot more detail in the boys' legs than in yours. The most you could do would be to brighten up the boys so they're closer in appearance to you. I'd recommend using Levels (Image>Adjustments>Levels) to do this.

Check the brush is set to 100% opacity, and it's on normal mode, also check if your using any selections that your not painting on an area unselected, also check if your painting on a layer, that the blend mode is set to normal, and it's 100% opacity (you can always alter it later)

(I'd pick a bright red or something and just do one stroke and see what happens, it should show up fine) Wayne
