Hey there,
I have been working at this problem for a while and still haven't found a good solution, so here goes:
I am starting a new business making terrariums and am starting to take product shots to build my website. I am trying to take the photo of a few terrariums (glass container with plants in it), remove the background and put it over a new background layer of a forest scene. After about 4 hours of trial and error (and much manual outline selection) I got to the .gif attachment you see below, it's grainy and there is not good colour detail.
I sometimes found it hard to take clear photos of the plants inside the terrariums because there was a lot of glare on the glass. I have 4 background colour options: blue, red, white and black. I opted for the red because I thought it would be the most contrasting with the contents of the terrarium.
What would be the best way to remove the background and to achieve this?
I have a load of images that I have been given by a manufacturer, some have white backgrounds and are great. Others, have a black background..and are not great. I am needing to edit these black background images to be like the white background images.
You'll notice for the product (attached images) that there is packaging immediately around the yellow string. It's this bit that I am finding incredibly hard to change from the blackish colour to the whitish colour, shown in the picture with the white background.
Does anyone have any ideas please how I can change this black area to be like the 'good' photo? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Hello,
I wondered if someone would hear me out and possibly help or advise me.
In the attachment there is a great picture of a bass jumping with the sky and sunset in the background.
I added a white paw to the sky and hope to make it look or blend in as a beleivable cloud in the sky.
My novice thoughts about how I might do this was as follows:
1) create and save a precise selection of the paw with a close detailed trace (I am having trouble donig this ste) and save the selction.
2) take that selection to the background copy layer and delete all the area inside that selection
3) take the background copy for cloud breakthrough layer and place it below the background copy layer with color enhancements to show through the holes in the background copy layer.
there is also a cloud paw layer which I aborted efforts working with.
-Bottom line is I am looking for a cloud paw in the sky which looks good, an orange emphasis is desired.
If you can do some work in the file and post it back up or at least advise how you would reccomend I try and go about it would be greatly appreciated.
BTW - The selection process really giving me fits with the idea I had, If you know of a great selection tutorial please send me some info.
Thanks,
Joe
The attached picture is the black silhouette of a bass with transparent background (on its layer) but when I isolated it and did a background eraser a remnant of gray outline remains in many areas of the picture (this can be seen by turning on the black layer also in the file). I have tried to do additional color eraser to no avail. Can someone help me get this gray gone and leave only the black on the layer. I would like to know what tools and techniques you use as well. Your help is appreciated.
Heck I cant get the .psd to attach so I added i made examples below the first with the outline and transparent background looks good but when you put it on a black background (image2) you see the outlines in gray that I want to get rid of or turn black. Either way the goal would be when I turn on the black background the fish should disappear.
Thanks,
Dino
Hey, im at work now and i dont have access to photoshop, anyway, is there a chance anybody can remove the background of this and make the size 4x3CM (Centimeters)? I tried to do this in one of the "webphotoshop" pages but didnt work out that good.
Its for an ID card and i have already checked if im allowed to do this in this way.
I have attached the file to this thread.
Request: Remove the background and make it transparent or with a white background.
I want to be able to recreate my wrestling team's photos to look like the main photo on www .CaelSanderson.com (shown below)... I have been able to remove the backgrounds and make it look like a black and white image in the background and the main subject is color, but do not know how to give it a blue hue similar to the main image on the website. Any suggestions?
Hi,
Today I saw a picture that looks different on black background and on white. There is an example attached. Does anybody knows how to do this? I found an explanation on the link below, but doesn't worked for me (when I create the subtract layer, it doesn't result on a transparency layer):
graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/9088/image-that-looks-different-on-black-background-and-on-white
All I know is that the final image must be a PNG file, with transparency on it... But don't know how to merge the two images to get the effect of different images depending on the background color (black or white).
Can anybody help me to understand that effect?
Hello,
I'm an amateur photographer and did a photo shoot for a friend.
I used a colored background (1 color) but I now want to change that background to white.
I already tried myself with Photoshop and as you Photoshop experts definitely know, changing most of the background is very easy but it's not that easy to do it in such a way that the 'borders' of the person look natural
I'm looking here for someone who is good in this (so definitely no Photoshop amateur) and who's willing to do this for me. I'm prepared to pay a small fee (via Paypal) for it because I want it to be perfect.
I'm talking about 6 photos.
Please note that I don't want the background color to be changed everywhere to 100% white, the (small) shadows of the background (like in the corners of the photo) and the 'gradient' in the background have to stay so it looks more natural.
If you are very experienced in this and if you are interested in this small job, please send me a PM.
Thanks a lot in advance,
Kate
Any tips on the quickest & effective way to remove everything apart from the cake?
So far I have tried:
- background eraser set to Discontinuous, and the cake seems to be removing too.
- Magic wand tool, again, not working.
- Quicke selection tool
Obviously I have the option of manually removing it with the Poly tool, but I yawn as I think about it.
Hi all
Need someone the remove the backgrounds completely on these images PRETTY PLEASE
i keep trying but get a thin pixel layer of white around the lettering which looks awful!
(On the phone i still want the screen white just the background to the overall image gone)
Hi I've just created a white circle. I would like to add some shading on it to make it appear more 3D.
I use the gradient tool...but instead of it being white...with dark grey/black shading. It goes from white and fades to the colour of the background it's on. I've spent hours messing around with the gradient tool and the colours will not change. It just fades to whatever background it's on rather than a specified colour. All I want is a white sphere with black shading...rather than see through white.
It's driving me mad.
Cheers
