The Ha is showing up but it all looks a bit dark on my iPhone... not exactly the best screen though haha
You’ve got some nice data to play with though :)

Brent, nice start. The alignment (registration) looks off to me. As per my PM try registering the channel files in DSS (creating a reg file) instead of trying to align in Photoshop.

Stick with it :thumbsup:

P.S.

The fact you are using CS2 is cool.....a little known fact is, most bank notes have a "constellation" on them.

The "EURion cluster" is used as an anti-counterfeit device that modern versions of image processing (scanning/printing software) that will not let you scan, let alone print bank notes.

Try to scan a pound/yen/dollar with Photoshop CC and see how far you get!

Early versions of Photoshop don't care ;)

You can scan as much as you like....but print...well OK...that too....but :doh: ....I suspect there may be serious consequences if you try hand out your efforts!

Thanks guys, Glen has give me some more processing pointers so expect improvement.

Xerox equipment have a clever piece of print imaging software which can be used to identify the machine for similar counterfeiting reasons. I think some of them won't even copy a banknote, they abort the process.

Reprocessed a bit more conventionally.

A refreshing approach. Well done.
