An image, to which I applied Photoshop's gradient map filter, of the electrical station on 19th Street at Route 83 in Harrisburg PA. Taken with my Kodak Easyshare camera.
Various color gradients applied to a Miravi image of Japan and the Sea of Japan region. OK - this one isn't so colorful...
Assignment: Extreme Processing.
OK, I am not much of a processor. I crop, I sharpen, I sometimes lighten shadows or adjust contrast. That's about it. So this assignment took me way outside my comfort zone! I decided to take one photo and process it three different ways. I don't know if any of them are really "extreme" - but they are for me!
For this one I used the gradient map filter. i chose one of the options (I don't know which) that gave this blue/yellow contrast. I sort of like the yellows, but it is so unrealistic for me that I don't think it is something I would choose to do most of the time.
Empire State Building from above. (Top of Rock) I stayed up there for around 2 hours waiting for the lights to all come on after sunset, etc.
The Gradient Map in Photoshop can be used with downloaded Gradients to create cool cross processing of images with ease. The tutorial is here:

Saw this on my trip in Washington D.C. Like how he color coordinated with his segway.
Photoshop used to make pink stand out more.
Taken with Canon T3i.
Second attempt with light painting. used the led from my phone to elluminate the scene. the photo was taken in raw and processed using photoshop cs3 where i added a white into red gradient filter.
The next photo i take of the guitar i will try and eliminate the light swirls and highlight certain areas of the guitar.
more to come!!
Taken for weekly photochallenge... using a gradient map adjustment layer for toning (colour). Some interesting effects; but not wholly convinced I'll be using it a lot. Still, useful tool to have available!
This one may not be as... sultry, as the other one, but I'm pleased. It's got something, something playful, something that just isn't trying too hard but gets it.
set-up: 1/2 sec exposure time on glow stick (in the dark, w/o flash) exhibiting more or less random motion
the original picture was cropped, desaturated, inverted and several copies were made with various gradient maps. these images were then overlaid with the use of layer masks.
the photoshopping was inspired by akimota's shot flickr.com/photos/yeahyeahwhatever/3040149238/
Norio knows he makes a good subject to test filters on with my camera program. He was resting on his nest next to my computer when I took his picture. This is the filtered version of him - I used a yellow-black gradient color mapping.
Most of the really important things in life - such as love and death - happen unexpectedly. ~Victor Bridges~
You hear about these things, and don't believe
them... take for granted they're a scam or just
imagination running loose. Naïve
I'm not. I've pulled a con or two, I must
admit, and certainly can sniff one out.
That's why I hit the wall when this deal wound
up being real... legit... You work with doubt
so long and never see it coming... Bound
to happen to the best of us... I sold
a mark a treasure map I'd gotten in
a game of Aces - looked real good... was old
and missing just enough to prick the skin.
A man is caught by greed, and thinking he's
the only one to recognize the keys.
The dance had just begun when I was made
an offer no one could refuse: to be
a guide. I knew the region well. I'd fade
into the darkness - slip away while he
was sleeping just before we got to where
the "treasure" was. Win-win. I'm not a rogue
by nature, but compulsion. This unfair
existance drives me to it. All agog,
the marks will come to me with cash, and I...
well... I just can't resist the chance to make
the world a better place, to equalize
the wealth - to do my bit. They give. I take.
A secret service to my fellow man,
is what it is. I'm doing what I can...
The best-laid plans, you know, unravel. Mine
did. Never had the opportunity
to slip away. I had to stick. Resigned,
I tried to make the most of it. My fee
might still be saved if I could craft the right
excuse when we found bupkis at the "x".
The map said treasure "rose in splendid height" -
though what that meant was anybody's guess.
I knew the region, as I said. And all
that rose to any height was worthless rock.
Or that's what I believed before we'd crawl
down through a tunnel in a cliff of chalk.
I never saw it coming, see... A map
that's real - pays off... To me, they all were crap.
I saw the light ahead and got my lines
prepared for when the mark would find a wall
of zip, not treasure. Yeah, the man who dines
on fish expects to eat a bone. That's all.
That's just the way it works, so be prepared.
When sunlight glares on chalk, you know, it's hard
as hell to see - it's blinding. Still, I stared...
I stared because it wasn't chalk - that hundred yards
of cliff-face rising splendid right in front
of me - but precious stone! Enough to make
a dozen millionaires! Our treasure hunt
had made us rich - a profit from mistake...
The mark was generous and cut me in,
you see. And Lord! I couldn't help but grin...

39/52 for the group T189ers weekly alphabet challenge
This week's theme was: T is for Toning with the gradient map
The original photo wasn't very exciting because I have had a busy week and no time to go out looking for something spectacular. Fortunately, someone has put a horse and tiny pony in the small field opposite our house, so I grabbed this shot to try the new technique.
I reather like the warmth that the gradient map has added to the picture and this is definitely a technique I will explore further. Thank you, Louisa for another interesting challenge.
Gradient map of Jeffy sitting in our new library/office. This is such a great photo because he was looking down, and usually when I try to get him to look up for the camera, he does not comply in a fashion that leads to a good photo. This time, it worked like a charm.
This is experimental photo:
I playing with image/adjust/gradient map
I using only black and red
and of cource whithe.
Result suprice me.
If I want print this to paper...need only black and red...
You can change any photo to Line art like this and also make a vignette very easily in Photoshop CS. The tutorial is here:

It's Experimental Week, and I'm dedicating it to Adjustments!!
I recently saw a video where there was no absolute black giving it that over-exposed appearance, and after a closer look I figured they used Gradient Map...
With my Grad Map I usually set the brightness of my stops to the same value as their location (yea, try that one out if you haven't already, it works great!), but this time I've decided to mix it up and play with various colors and values in places I wouldn't usually do... this should be fun
Its time to transition back to digital art as the dark room will be closed to me until next February. BUMMER! Maybe I'll have to splurge and go on a spending spree at freestyle. Image property of BTSphotos.com. All rights reserved.
