Hi all - newbie here, 6d, studying photography.
Have just found an issue when opening shots to edit in photoshop and am hoping someone has a simple explanation! (user error likely!)
I like shooting with the colour settings on my camera quite vibrant, it’s become almost my own styling.
So I’m just looking at a load of photos from Peru, where there’s gorgeous vibrant blues and reds and oranges. They are showing as shot as thumbnails in file explorer. However when I open them in PS, they are at once toned down and dull and sludgy. I can see the contrast when have both windows open in explorer and PS.
It’s hugely different. White balance is: as shot
And I can’t seem to get the colouring back to what it was. I just want to make other adjustments, straighten a few, cropping etc in PS. Am rather happy with the original colours and most of the exposures (though I am new to this and am probably missing a trick!)
How do I get PS to stay faithful?
I checked and it’s RGB and North American general purpose 2 (I looked this up already)
But beyond that I’m stuck!
Thanks guys!
Happy new year!
