Fantastic colours!
The colours remind me of the 'Quink' ink I used when I was at school!
http://garyparkinsondigital.com/port...N5K-BUD-H6RPK8 Great capture, in my opinion. What do YOU think? Fun read here, too, if you have the time! http://www.fountainpennetwork.com/fo...age-parker-51/ -- Regards, David B. |

Nice pix, but on my screen, the colors seem to be exaggerated electronically, as if by a "saturation" button. Mort Linder |

It is difficult to know what the colors actually were like unless you were at the scene. What I saw was, in general, the close-up photos were a bit more vivid than what I consider natural, while the scenic photos seemed about right. I could be wrong since I calibrated my display so that the Lubuntu desktop looks just like the display beside it. -- Ken Hart |

I could be wrong since I calibrated my display so that the Lubuntu desktop looks just like the display beside it. There is a way to get colors at/in a scene right. Start with a calibrated display. Use a color calibration card/target such as an X-Rite Colorchecker to take a reference shot of the scene under the same lighting conditions as your subject. That is what I use. http://xritephoto.com/colorchecker-passport-photo Crop the Colorchecker panel and create a camera/lens profile using the X-Rite software. Use the newly created camera+lense calibration profile as a starting point for any further adjustments. You should have no further need to adjust color. The bottom panel in this shot is the Colorchecker, the top panel is for WB tone adjustment. https://www.dropbox.com/s/1waobdengnjmext/DSF1775-1.jpg The cropped Colorchecker panel. https://www.dropbox.com/s/mpcyge9vphx3bts/DSF1775-2.jpg -- Regards, Savageduck |

In the firs link the greens were unrealistically over saturated. There was no tonal subtlety. Some like it that way. I don't, and Mort appears to think so too. -- PeterN |

What do YOU think? I think it's garishly over-processed. And, a poorly composed and uninteresting photo. then your display is not properly calibrated. This photo of mine is also processed-for-effect. The most accurately calibrated monitor will not show the flower in its natural colors. But, I did not intend for it to represent the natural colors. https://photos.smugmug.com/Current/i...2017-07-11.jpg I like the image, but think it would be stronger if you go rid of the white petal at the bottom, and sharpened the center of the flower. -- PeterN |

My software is Lubuntu (LXDE + Ubuntu) 16.04, with kernal 4.4.0-97. I never played hockey, so I have no use for a puck. In the darkroom, however, I calibrate everything to an 18% gray card, using an Eseco densitometer (for both negs and prints). -- Ken Hart |
