Uncropped shot of a flower.
All the artistic types can do what they like with it and not tell me off
because they did not like the way I cropped it. Enjoy and post your results soon. Cheers. Pete http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2180/...19345233_o.jpg

Hard to tell, because when I opened it in NX Capture, the program told me it "has a modification that is not on this computer". EXIF is missing and it's not a photo that came straight out of the camera. I think I see some tomato plants in the background and they are not so bright green here in Portugal. Possibly only the magenta needs to be cut a little. What camera did you shoot it with? -- Sosumi

Sosumi, I'm trying to get a handle at certains terms (I'm colour blind to a certain extent). What do you mean by "oversaturated", please? In otherr words, how can you judge? Is it "too red"? Could you please explain. I'm also aware that different monitors may show variances. Thanks, Marcel

Thanks, Marcel Oversaturated = too much colour Imagine a coloured cloth which has been exposed to the sun and looks washed-out. Insufficient colour (compared to the original). Too little saturation. Now imagine the opposite. Over-saturated. If you have access to a TV with a "colour" (color) control, varying the control varies the amount of saturation. It's not a colour shift (which might be shown by a "tint" control). I hope that helps. David

Sosumi, I did "levels" in Photoshop and got this: http://celestart.com/images/publiques/flower.jpg Is it less saturated? By the way, I checked the EXIF... You're right. None. Marcel

Would this be better then? http://celestart.com/images/publiques/flower.jpg I guess what you're saying is saturation=exxageration of the colour, ie. too muche as compared to the original? Marcel

Marcel Yes, exactly. You would need to compare the original with the light coming from the display, or the light reflected by a print, to say which was more accurate! Your image is lighter - reducing saturation should not affect the brightness of the picture. Cheers, David
