Hi, help!
This is a combination of 3 pictures and the light was not the same on each side of the bridge. How can I do to obtain quite similar light, ar at least to minimize the differences. I used Paint shop pro 9, and I tried for one hour a lot of thing without any acceptable result.
Thanks for help
Good night

Hi Bernadette !
I would try to use the clone tool, to make the three bridges seem one bridge with three bifurcations. And of course, the same tool to clone the water and the background. Then, I would try this picture in B&W but just because I am a B&W lover. haha

Greetings,
Marcos Rowinski

the combining of the three pictures looks good.
I think you should work on each photo seperatly.
In PSP 9 you.ve got the option adjust
use brightness and contrast=====>and with curves, gamma and highlight/midtone/shadow you can adjust the pictures

Play around till you're satisfied........but on each photo seperatly....and at last stick them together.

I suggest that you start with the individual photos and use the gradient layer tool to harmonise the light

Dear Bernadette
That´s what I think you want to do. If so I will explain afterwards what I have done.
I have been ill for the last 2 days, so I could not answer to you on the Forum. I´ll do that as soon as I am better. Cheers

Oh! Thanks All!
I'm ashamed, Just back from office and I discover that everybody works for me.
Couthino this is exactly the result I was looking for ! The same colour for the water and sky, as if it was the same picture. Hope you will recover very soon, and not only for explanations...Thanks again to you all. So, i'm not in a hurry, not sure to have time before WE, this is PANIC at work now, holidays are really finished.......
I will try with Fred and Marcos and Ruud advices, but I'm curious to know how you did. But first, it's important you are better.
All the best my friends
