francis_dantuono Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 The following photo was taken circa 1970-1972 abs was part of an ID photo, however it is to me close enough to an HD photo of the subject (deceased relative) despite the horrible background color However, the professional scan below I feel was way too oversatured and too high in contrast https://ibb.co/2gt0JRS I was hoping someone might correct the colors for me The second, marked id -3 pic is an attempt by myself to correct it The third/fourth pic are color reference pics of subject in 1972 in natural - ambient lightning.

Glenn McCreery Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 If you have access to Photoshop, you can use "select color range" to isolate the background color and then pain over it or add a background layer with a separate photo. Here I use a neutral gray color. There is some some resultant color fringing from the selection which could be removed with a bit of cloning.
