 The plugin selectively desaturates the image, but also gives a subtle change in hues. The end result is that some parts of the image become monochrome, while others take on a sort of unrealistic-looking colouration. It's hard to describe, so you'll need to try it to appreciate properly what I'm talking about.
These two sliders work together to control the colouration of the image. The Saturation slider has the most dramatic overall effect, while the effect of the Balance slider is more subtle. Actually, if you experiment you'll find that a high saturation and low balance give a result that initially looks very similar to low saturation and high balance. There will be a subtle difference in the image's colour balance, however. This slider controls the "realism" of the colours. At minimum, the image will be mostly monochrome; at maximum, the coloured areas will be very unrealistic. The Grain slider adds some grain to the image, with a bias toward the desaturated areas. Use this to increase the "cheap magazine cover" feel with the more vibrantly-coloured images. With more subtle colourations, add just a little grain for an "arty" result. Use this slider to increase the contrast in the less saturated areas... |
