jpg has 8 bits per channel meaning it can display only 256 distinct shades of gray.
camera raws tend to have lots more bits than that. is there a way to fit more of these grays into the evil format we call jpg?
perhaps we can dither the higher bit depth data into the jpg? darktable has a dither option but im not surrrrrrre if its doing what im talking about here. i think this is something i need to play around with in gimp.
my other idea for fitting that higher tonal data into a jpg is to use false colors to represent more gray tones, producing a fun gradient of colors from light to dark??
anyway whatever heres a picture with the darktable dither on auto and with it on 1 bit for fun.
and that finishes what we started back in october. there's various other photoshoots i've been avoiding touching but I think I'm ready to get em done now.
coming back to this shoot with a better idea of how to edit it
more year old photos
redgraph can really be foul huh
without a prominent red in the scene getting the balance right between the two shots is very vibes
what is a redgraph? it's one photo taken with a red filter, one with no filter, then the difference between the two becomes the green and blue layers and the red one is the red layer. then a little bit more editing and voila, it's horrifying! for extra fun i took a buncha redgraphs without a tripod so everything has that anaglyph 3d eyesore to it!
its like a trichrome without the tri part?? it's a less-involved and more loose version of a thing I did nearly a year ago: https://streak.club/p/56991/trichrome-by-999999999
image #3 with bouba has some masking stuff going on to bring out midgrey detail in the environment but still keep her fur contrasty black and white im proud of the result
