i'm late, so here's a very quick one, another components experiment (using a black and white texture as the B component in CMYK)
idk i feel like components unlocked something for me, it makes so much sense for my artistic visions it's pretty insane
these raws are weeeeeird to work with, very green highlights and color shifts on the sides, but still holy shit they look good even pushed
one of the test pictures i did with a sigma dp1 merrill. the raws look amazing, i'm blown away. i didn't expect the sensor technology to make such a big difference. zoom in on this picture, the details are insane for a 15 megapixels sensor. color looks great too, but i think this camera truly shines in b&w
400 iso, ~0.6s exposure, i can't remember the aperture
first picture taken with my first c-mount lenses (by accident?)
i don't think i'll use it much outside due to how eye catching the setup is, however i love being able to see the entire image projected by the lenses w/o being cropped into a stupid rectangle. circle photography be poppin

@999999999 for sure! i'll skip the details and only discuss the main effect
in GIMP, there's components command that allow to split color channels of an image to separate value (b&w) layers, and then merge them back together
in combination with the rest of the GIMP toolkit, this allows fine-tuning specific channels in the color model of your choice (very cool with HSV and HSL!!)
for this one i took the main picture, went to Colors > Components > Decompose..., chose the CMYK color model (the one used by most printers). i then erased the K layer (blacK, the dark ink) and replaced it with a very bright b&w picture. thanks to CMYK being substractive, i got pure colors from the original picture (no black) and applied a texture on top of it
after it's done, just go to Colors > Components > Recompose and tadaa
:O
Could you explain the process here?
