'''Article(s):''' [[Mir]], [[STS-79]]

'''Request:''' Hi folks, I'd like to use this image as the new main image on the ''[[Mir]]'' page, and I was wondering if someone would please be kind enough to give it a brighten and general clean-up before I do? Many thanks, [[User:Colds7ream|Colds7ream]] ([[User talk:Colds7ream|talk]]) 17:41, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

As nobody else tried yet - here's an attempt. If you think I've overdone it desaturating the blue in the globe, just say, I've kept the source file, so easy to change, and it's a separate adjustment to the highlights on the station itself. (in fact there are a couple less aggressive in the history of the 'edit' file)&nbsp;[[User:Begoon|<font face="Arial" color="#0645AD">'''Begoon'''</font>]][[User Talk:Begoon|<font style="color:#808080;font-weight:bold;">^talk</font>]] 14:29, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

::Thanks, but the new files seem more... Blotchy? As for saturation, etc., if you could make the new file as close as possible to the first, lo-res version of the original file, that's what I'm looking for. :-) [[User:Colds7ream|Colds7ream]] ([[User talk:Colds7ream|talk]]) 15:23, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

:::Ok - plan 'B', then - here's just a colour correction to start with. If that's what you're aiming for, we can clean up the noise on that. &nbsp;[[User:Begoon|<font face="Arial" color="#0645AD">'''Begoon'''</font>]][[User Talk:Begoon|<font style="color:#808080;font-weight:bold;">^talk</font>]] 15:55, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

::::Lovely - thanks! Would it be possible to warm the colours up, and de-noise it? :-) [[User:Colds7ream|Colds7ream]] ([[User talk:Colds7ream|talk]]) 16:30, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

:::I've added some red, done some cleaning up/noise reduction &nbsp;[[User:Begoon|<font face="Arial" color="#0645AD">'''Begoon'''</font>]][[User Talk:Begoon|<font style="color:#808080;font-weight:bold;">^talk</font>]] 18:38, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

::::Could the image be warmed up even more? I'm hoping for colours similar to these, if possible: [http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/archive/3/37/20100826173646!Mir_entre_l%27espace_et_la_Terre.jpg] [[User:Colds7ream|Colds7ream]] ([[User talk:Colds7ream|talk]]) 17:40, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

:::::Here is a version that attempts to move in that direction (stronger correction is in file history) &nbsp;[[User:Begoon|<font face="Arial" color="#0645AD">'''Begoon'''</font>]][[User Talk:Begoon|<font style="color:#808080;font-weight:bold;">^talk</font>]] 06:50, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

::::::Right; I'm really sorry about this - I'm faffing about. Getting closer, so let's try this; the highlights on ''Kristall'' and ''Priroda'' should be somewhere around [[Ivory (color)]], and the orange docking module should be somewhere around [[Orange (colour)]] and [[Burnt Orange (color)]]. The sky should be a bit darker, too. Does that help? [[User:Colds7ream|Colds7ream]] ([[User talk:Colds7ream|talk]]) 11:24, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

:{{unindent}} That's ok. I think I've been looking at this too long now - seeing things that aren't there. I swear I saw a spacewalker a minute ago... new version uploaded. &nbsp;[[User:Begoon|<font face="Arial" color="#0645AD">'''Begoon'''</font>]][[User Talk:Begoon|<font style="color:#808080;font-weight:bold;">^talk</font>]] 13:02, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

::Much better! Thanks! If you could just remove some of the red and inject some blue into the sky, I think that's it! :-) [[User:Colds7ream|Colds7ream]] ([[User talk:Colds7ream|talk]]) 13:38, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

:::New version. &nbsp;[[User:Begoon|<font face="Arial" color="#0645AD">'''Begoon'''</font>]][[User Talk:Begoon|<font style="color:#808080;font-weight:bold;">^talk</font>]] 14:14, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

::::...and that'll do nicely! Many thanks! :-) [[User:Colds7ream|Colds7ream]] ([[User talk:Colds7ream|talk]]) 09:15, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

::I had already "touched up" a few obvious defects (like the bar between yellow and red which was totally mashed in the original, and a couple of other things). - I've done a bit more noise reduction and uploaded a new version - but I don't really want to go much further in case it is detrimental. &nbsp;[[User:Begoon|<font face="Arial" color="#0645AD">'''Begoon'''</font>]][[User Talk:Begoon|<font style="color:#808080;font-weight:bold;">^talk</font>]] 10:37, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Maybe it looked more like the edit above? Or... maybe not - I have no way of knowing, but the overall blue "ambience" is, I think, what makes it appear to disappear, so to speak. &nbsp;[[User:Begoon|<font face="Arial" color="#0645AD">'''Begoon'''</font>]][[User Talk:Begoon|<font style="color:#808080;font-weight:bold;">^talk</font>]] 11:49, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Feel free to revert if you think that's too aggressive, but I think what I removed was junk... &nbsp;[[User:Begoon|<font face="Arial" color="#0645AD">'''Begoon'''</font>]][[User Talk:Begoon|<font style="color:#808080;font-weight:bold;">^talk</font>]] 13:14, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
