Color Range Adjusting (Alias Color Swap)

....
Photo Jockey has the UNIQUE ability to take a color range (for example: Redish) and then restrict image adjustments to just those areas of the photo that fit the Color Range. So in the above example, we selected redish. We then increased the blue and decreased the green & red from the photo. But instead of the WHOLE PHOTO becoming adjusted, ONLY THE AREAS that matched the Color Range are adjusted. This is very powerful. Not only can you CHANGE colors as in the above example, but you can enhance colors as well. You could make blue skies bluer, red sunsets reder, and green trees greener without affecting the whole image. Our Range & Shade tolerance sliders make this a UNIQUE feature to Photo Jockey. Canon has a feature called "COLOR SWAP" in their digital cameras. Our feature allows for the color swap and MORE....And Photo Jockey does a better job at the color swap too.
 

Color Enhancing (Red, Green, Blue)

....
....
Photo Jockey can also take primary colors and enhance them. Basically you can make blues bluer and reds reder and greens greener. As you can see in the above example, Photo Jockey has made the blue sky bluer and the green grass greener.
 
 

Searching For Duplicate Images Sample


Sometimes you may want to find all the duplicate images in your system. You can do this even by image appearance. There are many options for searching. The above shows you 2 groups of duplicates found. As you click on the filenames, a preview is shown. You can then delete, move or copy the file being previewed. As you can see, it can find dups that are rotated, flipped or mirrored. It can even find dups when some are color and some are black & white.
 
 

Quilted Photo Sample
 
Original Photo And Quilted Photo
Original Photo Quilted Photo (from a mosaic of thumbnails)
This is a sample of the Photo Quilting feature. As you can see, it takes a folder of images and creates a mosaic of thumbnails to reproduce a selected photo. If you want to see this quilted photo in it's full size, click here.
 
 

Web Page Creation Sample



NOTE: Click here to see the ACTUAL Web Page in your browser.
This is a sample screen shot of a browser viewing a web page that was automatically created with Photo Jockey. You will notice the nice split window where the scrolling thumbnail gallery is on the left and the actual image you click on is located on the right side. The right side shows image properties like filesize, image width, image height, filename. In addition, it will also show any TEXT COMMENTS that you have added to the image with Photo Jockey.
 
 

Cloning Effects

......
This head from the first photo was cloned onto the body of the second photo to produce the third photo. NOTE: The head size did NOT match the body, so Photo Jockey has the option to resize the cloned area as you paste it, thus producing a very natural effect.
 
 

Batch Processing Samples

....
These 3 photos were normal looking photos selected from a large list of photos (tagged). You will notice that all three of the photos are highly contrasted and super color saturated and rotated. In addition, they all have copyright noctices added to the bottom of them. All of this was done automatically. You could have done 300 photos all at once and it would take the same amount of prep work to decide what effects you wanted to include in the batch process.The batch process can do color adjustments, resizing, rotating, text additions, image overlays, special effects (emboss, twirl, perspective, fish-eye) and more to a list of tagged files. This is a great time saver.

Right: The photo was brightened with Photo Jockey, ONLY in the REGION area of the photo that was dark.
 
 

Double Exposure Effects


This is an example of creating a double exposure effect. Basically, you take one photo and overlay it on top of another photo. Then you select the density for each photo to be about the same percentage. In the above, we used 60-40, so we could bring out the building a little better. Also, we used edge blending so that the right edge of the double exposure area would blend into the main photo. All in all, double exposures can give you a nice end result.
 
 

Rotation By Any Angle Samples

..
Left: Fireworks photo taken at an angle. Because of a lack of a tripod, the camera was pressed tightly against the hood of a car.
Right: Photo fixed with Photo Jockey.
 
 

3D Perspective / Shear Transformation Samples

Right: Building is sheared to the right.
 
 

Fish-Eye, Emboss & Other Special Effects Samples

......
From left to right, these are examples of (Fish-Eye, Twist, Emboss, Ripple). You can even perform these operations on multiple images in the BATCH processing mode.
 
 

Digital Zoom Sample

....
You will notice that we start with a relatively small EYE in the left photo. When using Photo Jockey's DIGITAL ZOOM feature, you can enlarge the eye to a large amount and it STILL looks good and smooth and natural. The right photo shows how most other software enlarges images. You can see that it looks more blocky and pixelated.
 
 

Text Box Overlay Sample



As you can see, you can add all kinds of text to your photos. You can select the font, and the size and color. You can also select the level of transparency and select outline font as well. You can also make the text vertical (sideways).
 

Business Cards Made Easy


As you can see, you can quickly produce various business card layouts easily. It took about 1 minute to produce the 2nd card after the first card was done. The text/image overlays can be saved into a template style for recall at a later date so you can make changes if you desire.
 

Company Logo Overlay Samples



This example shows how you can take a company logo and place it onto an image. You can place multiple logos anywhere. These logos can be translucent, or you can specify a degree of  transparency. You can also resize the logo on the image. This process can be automated with the BATCH processing mode so you can add your logos to lots of image at once.
 
 

Sharpening Sample

Left: This is the original photo of a spider web. It's difficult to see the web.
Right: The image was sharpened with Photo Jockey and now the web stands out more.
 
 

3-D Appearance Sample

..
Sometimes you want to add a 3-D appearance to your image. Maybe you took the photo at a distance, or maybe your F-Stop was not sufficient to produce the depth of field you desired. Photo Jockey can take everything BUT the subject and blur it a bit so that you end up with a nice effect.
 
 

Dead-Pixel/Hot-Pixel/Weak-Pixel Locator

.
The above comparison window on the right shows that the camera has 3 bad spots (Hot-Pixels) in the sensor.
Digital cameras can have faulty sensors. In fact, it's more common than you may think. In order to see your bad spots, take a photo of something black in the dark. Then as you look at the photo, you may be able to make out the bad areas. Photo Jockey has the ability to enhance these bad spots so that they are easily detected. If you have too many, or they are too bright, then exchange your camera or get it fixed. Because these spots WILL show up in your photos.
NOTE: Use the Preview Window in Photo Jockey to find the dead pixels.
 
 

Image Differences Locator

.
The above DIFFERENCES window on the bottom shows 3 areas that are different between the top 2 photos.
Sometimes you might need to know the differences between 2 images. Maybe in order to determine which photo to delete, or maybe out of curiosity. The Differences window can spot them for you quickly. It can even be used to see which image is of better quality.
NOTE: Use the Preview Window in Photo Jockey to find the differences.
 
 

Contact Sheets Sample



You can produce a gallery of thumbnails called a Contact Sheet. These thumbnails have the photo's filename underneath each one. Also at the top is an information block. It contains what folder the Contact Sheet was produced from and a Company Information line in case you are a professional photographer and want your company information at the top of the sheet that you may hand out to customers.
 
 

Screen Snap Shot Sample


Sometimes you may want to take a screen snap shot of what you computer screen looks like. Maybe you want to email it to a geek buddy to help you with problems you are having with your computer. There are many good reasons for wanting screen snap shots.
