linear capture exercise 5

Exercise:

Taking any Jpeg or Tiff image, and opening it within photoshop, to produce a smooth curve .

First I need to convert a JPeg from 8 to 16 bit.

Open Jpag in image curve . Making the image with a curve as seen here. Darkening the image . saving the image, then re opening, using the curve scale again. This time, bringing back to the original image, surprisingly hard to do. Most I could get was a bright contrasty image . A lot of the finer detail lost, and some noise in the shadow areas.
