: Get white background on product photos? I have photos of a product and I would like to create a white background behind it. See it here: I have tried playing with levels and the brightness

For what it's worth, here's my attempt. It essentially takes the same approach as Scott's answer, so credit should go to him, but with a different approach to the top roll-off.

I noticed there was a slight green colour cast which I removed in a pretty quick and dirty way too (though not very well).



The reason this has been so easy to do is that you have otherwise done everything right - it's photographed with a light backlit background (normally you don't want, but in this case you do) so it can easily be isolated just with curves.

One option, at least with an image like this, could be to automate the levels by using the "pick white point" option. The screenshot below is from the Gimp, but as you can see in @Scott 's answer, it's available in Photoshop too.



After you click on "pick white point", you can click on the grey area of your image, and you'll end up with something looking like the following, which isn't too bad for a one-click solution:

You can get most of the way there with a simple Curves adjustment



I would mask the product so it's isolated and tweak the actual product further if needed.
