Giclee Art Reproduction Image Clean Up

"Hi. I'm JK Dooley and we're going to talk a little bit more about manipulating your image in Photoshop. I've done another example here for you. If you open up your image and it looks like this, you can see the comparison, chances are it's a little too bright and that's not what you're looking for. So that's another very easy thing to correct in Photoshop. You can see here, we just had to add a little darkness, take a little brightness away and you get the result that you want. Another easy, easy thing to do in Photoshop is to spot your image. There may be little dust marks. Down in the corner of this piece, I've got a little arrow down there, there's actually a thumb tack that was used to hold the piece up to photograph it. You can spot that out, and I circled some little spots here. So you'll just kind of do a once over of the image and, as you can see here, the spots have been removed and you get a much nicer piece obviously because as you blow these pieces up if it's a little tiny spot on a small picture it turns into a really big spot. So that's something that you really want to be careful of is make sure your image is totally cleaned up from any dust spots, anything like that, and once you've spotted it and adjusted the brightness you've just got a couple steps left and you'll have a great piece."
