Just that the initial print output was fine to my excited eye, then I down-sampled from my file to print at A4 16 bit 360 ppi TIFF to the smaller 8 bit 90ppi jpg for a version to post. I very seldom bother to assign the lesser sRGB profile for a post. For brighter greens/ blues for example the result vs AdobeRGB is quite a bit more subdued. So for me, the print output is closely mirrored by that on screen here. The differences and colour are clear and accurately reproduced on my screen and of course in the prints. Both versions are marked improvements over the original (un-posted) scan. I plead over-enthusiasm, posting the first version without a "cooling off period". Learning all the time. It's good to be enthusiastic, coming back after years of just casual photography and entering the M world.

Just a question: is your screen calibrated?
