A Black Cat in a Dark Room あいにく, このページは英語にだけ使用可能です。日本語のバージョンは遠からず出ります。 Have you ever tried searching for a black cat in a dark room? A difficult task. The author of the snapshot managed not only to find the cat but even take a photo of it with the built-in camera of his mobile phone. However, the quality of the photo is poor due to bad lighting. We will resort to the help of AKVIS Enhancer to shed light upon the black cat.
Open the photo in your photo editor and call AKVIS Enhancer Plug-in.
You will see the AKVIS Enhancer window with the photo processed at the default parameter values. The default value of the parameter Level of Detail is 5. As the photo is of poor quality, the increase in detail revealed color noise. To reduce the color noise, move the slider of Level of Detail to 2.
As the photo is dark we should increase the value of the parameter Shadows. We set the parameter to 80 and see the details in the shadows while the details in the light parts of the image are not affected.
Press the button  to apply the results of detail enhancement and close the plug-in's window.

The photo was of bad quality and the detail enhancement also revealed color noise in the dark areas. To get rid of color and luminance noise you can apply AKVIS Noise Buster. See a tutorial to learn how it works.
