[Leica] IMG:Friday Flower-Begonia

[kcarney1 at cox.net (Ken Carney)]

Jim,

On my monitor (calibrated SyncMaster LCD)it looks fine - more than fine. It
might be the devil to print, though.  I looked at it with Imageprint
profiles for PhotoRag and Epson Velvet Fine Art, and all of the flower was
out of gamut (according to Photoshop).  With Innova Smooth White Cotton, it
showed in gamut even with corrections to match the soft proof and the
original.  That's one I would put up on the wall.

Ken
