T-28 Trojan

It's the stupid moinitors. I had a bunch that were too dark. So, I lightened
them up. On other people's computers, they look too light. I learned from a
friend, who had the same problem, until he bought a different monitor. The
problem is, the monitors need to be calibrated properly. Otherwise, some are
too contrasty. I tried to calibrate mine, but, everything but the photos
looked over-exposed. I connected my computer to my already calibrated HD-TV,
and it made a world of difference. Higher resolution and better color and
contrast. Not all monitors were created equal.

Glenn, I really admire the colours on your shots, I don't recall ever
seeing one where the saturation isn't perfect. Do you concentrate
on
this a lot, while you're taking the pic or afterwards ?


This shot is as is from the camera. No adjustments, only resizing. No
sharpening either.
Only the text added.

I find though that every time I use a different computer the results are
heaps different. I have been looking at some of my
previous uplaods and they are horrible (on this new monitor) but they were
from how I had it calibrated for the print lab I use.

So I am going blind on this one as I have not had anything printed in
several months.

I purchased the Spyder2Pro calibrator to keep my monitors properly set.
It's not inexpensive, but worth it to keep everything looking the way it
should. We have 8 LCD monitors in the house, so it gets used. It can
also be used on the new digital televisions.
