pssh.. look who's talking. I'm yet to see something other than a botanical masterpiece from you.

I liked these two the most out of the pics I've taken so far today..

 

[Brie]

Wow very nice dude.. Is the second one a stack?

Nope.. telephoto from about 4 feet away. Not to bad for not using a tripod huh.

Those two are my favourite from you, Mass... Not including the Schizandra shots.

Here's one from today taken with my new macro lens! No tripod used 9don't have one atm), and no editing.

 

[mass]

So dark and ominous..
I know some people hate when I monkey with their pics, but I thought you may like to see my "version" of your photo.

pS.. when are we gonna jam out on some MW3?

 

[Devon]

Neat! I'm guessing you added more exposure, contrast, and vibrancy? looks good.

I'm working from 4:00 - 8:00, then going to a movie. How about tomorrow at 1:00 pm?

 

[amphirion]

is this a post photo processing party? can i join in?

 

[Brie]

Annddd here would be my take on that photo... Only so much I can do with this crappy old CS2 on the work puter though. lol. But I tend to prefer a darker photo then most, and like to produce an image that is more closely to what I see with the naked eye..

Works for me..
Just did a quick correct on the contrast and levels, and added a dash of color.

Love it Jon. Looks like wall art to me!

BE.. for some reason your pic isn't showing on my page.

 

[amphirion]

now that's weird. cuz i can see hers.... ?

 

[31drew31]

Im with mass, can't see it either.

 

[mass]

Is it cool? I wanna see..

 

[amphirion]

@mass: it's very similar to yours in the sense of contrast/brightness balance. however, hers is more blue/cyan dominant whereas yours is yellow dominant.

 

[Brie]

ok there, fixed it.. whatever was wrong with it..

I would say mine is nothing like travis' photo.. His is way overexposed IMO, and oversaturated in the green/magenta end.. While mine is underexposed still, and more towards the cyan/blue end(as you stated)

Question: do you folks all calibrate your screens for photo correction work? If so, what utility do you use? I use Adobe's built in color calibration tool that comes with CS, and I redo it twice a year to compensate for screen aging.
