Re: Peso: School Picture

McDonald's coffee is certainly better than their food.It is drinkable. When traveling abroad, I always look for McDonald's. First, they always have the best location in the city; second, one can get a large cup of decent hot coffee at a reasonable price; third, they have clean, free restroom

Cool photo, and a nice kid! Just on Tuesday, I took our daughter (who is in the "virtual mode") to the school, for the school photo. I was entertaining the thought of doing one myself, - but I lack any suitable backdrop. Besides, not doing this type of shots routinely would make it a rather

Well, I'd be curious to hear. My monitor was re-calibrated about a month ago. During RAW conversion I looked at color balance and warmed it up to daylight (5500) from the AWB of about 4900. I tried it warmer and it just looked a bit too much. So, could be my eyes or monitor - or it could be you

Nice pic. Color wise, it looks very close to neutral. Usually with people shots you want to err a little bit on the warm side. This is within the right range, but I'd probably go just a hair warmer ... it will help the skin tones. G On Feb 27, 2008, at 3:53 PM, Bruce Dayton wrote: > Well,
