I have a picture which is a panorama of a relief panel (think hieroglyphics). What I am wanting to do is strip out all the background so all I have is the lines of the relief art.
What I have tried is adjusting the brightness/contrast, turning the image into greyscale and selecting colour range but I am not getting the effect I want. I don't want to go too extreme and do line drawings of the panel. Ideally I would like to use the lines of the image as they appear and I'm sure there must be a way of doing this in Photoshop.
I have tried to find an example of the type of thing I'm after but haven't had much success but I think that's more to do which the search criteria I'm using rather than those images not being out there.
Can anyone help me with this problem?
