Thanks Mike! Good one
Very informative… I always thought histograms were associated with colors in the picture… Thanks for the eye-opener
Finally! No one has explained it properly (to me) until you, and that includes professionals. Thanks!
5 stars
Amazing!!! Great Video, thanks!!!!
Michael is a great man.
I think you mean JPEG compression not encryption.
great video, i understand what it means now
In lightroom I see histograms of loads of different colours, would have been nice to see a mention of that because that sort of confuses me a little. But I can probs work it out now I’ve seen this so thanks.
watch the video “How a Pixel Gets Its Color” and that should be a huge hint on what these colors mean (Yellow for example are those shades of Red and Green which overlap)
Thank you Michael i appreciate for your help take care your self we need all good people here and everywhere
