colour matching an inserted figure - Tawe19 - 08-10-2023
[attachment=10186]
Hello Everybody,
Please see the attached photo (I've got a much larger size uncompressed version).
It started life as including only 4 people, and I've added the fifth person who is the lady in the middle (wearing the light blue dress).
The inserted image was from a different photo taken outdoors in bright sunlight.
The resulting combined image seems 'not quite right' when it comes to overall colours, especially faces.
I've tried "colour matching" with limited success, and this image now represents the best that I can do.
Can anybody suggest any improvements ? All suggestions gratefully received.
many thanks

I made a small attempt.
I confess that the result disappointed me a little, but still something a little better than the original.

I followed the technique from the link I posted in my previous post.

Haven't read Pat's technique yet but I would fix that picture of her up first to look similar.

Thank you to everybody for your time and kind suggestions.
In the end it was the Pat David method that I followed, and learnt a lot.
many thanks.
