FA - intersting. Personally, I don't use editing software - just take things as they come out of the camera! The exception being I sometimes crop to make the image bigger - as for the Jack Snipe and Green Sandpiper. Invariably though, that's for unusual things as a record and more often than not taken from a distance in poor light (with ISO 6400) - so the enlarged image is often poor (sadly). Maybe I should splash out on a professional quality lens? However, if I has a couple of thousand quid to spare on hobbies, I would probably buy a telescope first.

It's the full version Pro v.4, but the results are watermarked. Have a play to see if you can improve on your enlargements and see what you think.

I'm just a point-and-shoot snapper, don't understand 90% of the gubbins on this thread...

But this photographer is an artist in every sense of the word ... http://art-profiles.com/albums/marshmarshall/1923-denatured-nature/albums.html#photoid=26854

Off to Liverpool for a few days next weekend, anyone suggest any good places for taking some photos. Plan on jumping on the city tour bus and getting on and off at various points, Cavern, Albert Dock and waterfront and the cathedrals, plus hoping to get a 5/6pm trip on the Ferry on Sunday evening.

Any other ideas please?

PS we're going on train so no transport to drive out of Liverpool anywhere.

Re: Photography thread 11.02 : Fri Feb 10, 2012 1:32 pm  
Just bought a new printer which is obviously for work cough but having a few issues photo printing. It's a Canon Pixma 880 series and does have pretty good detail but I'm having difficulty getting the colour right. I print from the Canon digital photo prefessional (I have Photoshop elements but haven't had much time to really get the best out of it - I use it for mainly correcting exposure and removing unwanted objects fro shot etc.).
What I don't understand is that the Canon software has profiles for the 880 series printer but it's really confusing and I can't get a good colour match. I know the prints won't look like they do on the screen but I tend not to play around with colours when editing the photo so it's pretty much as shot. All I do tweek is contrast, brightness and sharpen a bit.

The first few prints I did were heavy red, then I tried a few of the settings (vivid print, image correction, colour profiles) and all I got was a big green shift. After a lot of fiddling I have got reasonable results by swithing everything off (all colour profiles etc), and manually tweeking colours, brightness and contrast in the print settings.

Question is, should I bee looking at the colour profiles in more detail and does anyone have a basic idea what will work between the Canon software and the Canon printer?
