Title: Proud Mommy
Post by: Lynnya on September 11, 2018, 11:00:22 AM
Hi all, long time away and I've forgotten how to do this... :cool:  I've tried to color correct this skin tone. Did a threshold - Levels - color balance bringing down the yellow - and hue sat bringing down the yellow a bit more.. trying to get the numbers to look better.. this is where I'm at.. all help appreciated..

Lynn,

I think I like #2 the best. Where we see too much yellow; I wonder if sometimes that is their skin tone. Within the races there will be variations of skin tone.

The amount of yellow is always very difficult to determine, it should not be too much but I agree with Margie that there may be some in this lady's face.
