Cat in Window, Brooklyn
The cat in window shot is a beautiful print. One of the first color shots that I enjoy looking at. I haven't figured out with color why the web image looks more saturated than when I'm working in the Adobe RGB colorspace; and the print on silver rag is very close to what I see in PS on the screen. The web shot seems to be closer to the PS screen when I convert it to sRGB with Perceptual Intent set. But what's usually the hardest part - going from PS Screen to print - that was pretty easy. I set the printer driver to Adobe RGB; print options in PS set to Adobe RGB. Seems too easy.
Also - at least at this point, when you see a color shot, you can assume it has been heavily "fixed." This one is more like a painting in the sense that almost each section has the color / saturation / and exposure that I want - or think I want at the time. I should post the un-photoshopped version but oh - I don't think at this point I should be explaining color manipulation (since I hardly understand it myself). Although I suppose that hasn't stopped anyone before.

Waite a minute! You actually shot something in color? I really do like the pastel look to this image.
I shot digital for a year - so yeah - I've got thousands of color shots. Most of my digital stuff looks better in color so I thought I'd fool around with a couple of them.
very elegant, spare use of color!
I really like this photo. The cat, which is the only really colorful element in the photo, stand out beautifully from the almost colorless surroundings. Very nice.
