nice shot, seems to be lacking a bit of punch though, ie feels a bit flat ? maybe a tweak in your editing program may bring it out though ? :)

Hmmm,

Could be down to my monitor settings. I've had a few annoying issues with calibration the last month, so that could be the problem- i.e it looks ok to me but washed out to people with correctly set up monitors. I had a batch of enlargements back from photobox, and all the A3 size prints had a yellow cast.

Thanks for the comments though:)

Real nice picture but I agree with others colours look a little flat. Was it saved as Adobe RGB. Hope you don't object but did a little tweeking and would be interested in your opinion. Saved sRGB.... Ian :thumbs:

That's much nicer, thanks for that!

Exactly what did you do to get that result? I'm a n00b and I need all the help I can get!;) What I mean really is, how do you save it as sRGB?

Are you using photoshop ?? If so which version...?? I will work out exactly what I did and post later but time for bed right now as working in the morning. Ian :thumbs:

I'm using CS2. I'm still pretty clueless atm, but I'll get there!

I use CS7 so I'm very old fashioned. Much of what I do will I suspect work in CS2 but never having used it I don't know. Ian :thumbs:
