Alpine waterfalls
« on: October 13, 2014, 06:52:39 am »

Taken in Sep this year whilst walking in the Alps. Fuji XE-1. Unfortunately I was having to dodge the sun which was almost straight into the lens and the countryside made moving 20 metres to the side difficult.
I am trying to get my monochrome eyes back so any advice welcome. Ken

The first is particularly nice.  The second has too heavy darkening in three corners for my taste.

Sounds about right.

Thanks for the comments. Looking on my laptop the corners are way too dark.
Whether it is;
moving from a wide gamut monitor to a laptop or,
working in Gray Gamma 2.2 and then converting to sRGB or,
working with a 16MB file and squeezing detail out of shadow areas and then expecting the detail to be as visible in a 1050 px high image or,
it was too dark in the first place.
I will spend many frustrating hours trying to match what I know prints well to what looks good on a variety of monitors, my  monitors are profiled. I may look at working out how to get my wide gamut monitor to swiitch to sRGB that should help.
Any help gratefully appreciated Ken
