This is number 13 in the series "Print-a-Day for 30 Days." <http://georges.posterous.com/street-musician-print-a-day-13>
There are quite a few musicians that perform at the open air farmer's markets. This photo of a young violinist is one of my favorites. Some of you have seen an earlier version of this photo. I decided to include it in the print-a-day project because of the big areas of blue sky. In the past, with other printers, I've had trouble with this type of gradient. There can also be an issue with blue and cyan. The representation of this part of the color space can differ between monitor and paper. I added the vignette to help define the border. I had not felt that was necessary until I saw the printed version. Now that I've seen it, I prefer the version with the vignette. The final print and a nice smooth gradient with no banding. The sky color was very close. It seems just slightly more saturated. gs George Sinos -------------------- [email protected] www.georgesphotos.net plus.georgesinos.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
