As an exercise I copied each image and went through a colour correction routine, neutralizing black white and mid grey points. I was surprised to see the first image looked virtually unchanged, but came up with a difference on the second. (also cheated and brightened the mid tones as I would if the image was mine). I'll e-mail it to you separately. Just my opinion, of course. Maybe you may like to post the altered image for comment also. There are several caveats, the original posts are low res jpg's and have no colour profile so naturally limited in adjustability. More importantly, on screen display will be quite different to prints as I'm sure you are aware. Also, the vivid colour of the girl's dress in number two really affects how you perceive the rest of the image. Try covering that part of the image when you view it. Pardon me if I'm teaching you to suck eggs on any of this Regards, Hoppy ------------------------------ Message: 30 Date: Fri, 30 Jun 2006 19:49:27 -0600 From: GREG LORENZO <gregj.lorenzo@shaw.ca> Subject: [Leica] Colour Correction Assistance Appreciated To: Leica Users Group LUG <lug@leica-users.org> Message-ID: <3adf683b07b0.3b07b03adf68@shaw.ca> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Can someone tell me if I've got the colours correct on these two images? http://www.leica-gallery.net/gjl-1/image-94752.html http://www.leica-gallery.net/gjl-1/image-94753.html Film was Fuji Press 400 and skin tones especially as scanned appeared rather magenta on my monitor.
