May 15, 20205 yr Original picture from her IG and a modified version by me. I tried to increase perceptual picture quality: Step 1: I opened the picture in Gimp and decomposed the picture into three color layers Red, Green and Blue. I sharpened and Gaussian blurred these layers individually and finally combined the layers. Step 2: I modified colors to be less wild as the original picture has rather strong yellow tint. Contrast also increased. Step 3: I removed the objects behind Alejandra so that it looks more like a portrait picture and less a casual IG picture. Step 4: I exported the picture into a png file. Step 5: I uploaded the png file to bigjpg site for 4 x enlargement using artificial intelligence and saved the resulted huge picture. Step 6: I opened the enlarged picture in Gimp and manually modified especially fine facial detail to make them look less unnatural (correct the mistakes made by AI). I also added a little bit noise to the face to make it look less "waxy." Step 7: Finally I resized the picture back to 1080 x 1080 resolution from 4320 x 4320. Here I post both the original (left) and my modified (right) versions so you can make your own mind if my modifications improved anything or not. I like improving these IG pictures as they tend to be of low perceptual quality because they are often casually taken (bad lighting, noise etc.) and horribly compressed to be uploaded to IG. LEFT = ORIGINAL, RIGHT = MODIFIED BY ME. CLICK FOR BIGGER I worship Alejandra Cata as a Goddess. I think she is one of the most overlooked models.
