Cathedral without scaffolding


Sandokan

For the first time in 20 years, the Munster has no scaffolding on it. And Probably the last time in 20 years too...

 

In PS it had much more intense colours but exporting to a jpg has reduced the contrast - anyone know why?

I darkened it in PS and re-exported and now it looks more like the image seen directly from the CD - but I am still surprised at how exporting with a "quality" setting of 10 (instead of 12) changed the contrast and desaturated the hues (are those the right technical terms?).

 

PS We are having a glorious autumn in Europe :)

Hi Ravi, many thanks for posting this.

 

I have questions again.. Now, since you posted how to make good tea (loads of thanks!) I thought I pay attention to your photographs... ;-)

 

- What lens have you used?

- What time was it? Can't read it, Im afraid. Does it show 4.40 hrs. somewhat..?

Hi Uwe - hope you also got the tandoori chicken recipe from me and the Tuscan pork from Stuart?

 

It was a 28-70 zoom at around 35mm.

 

The time of the day was actually about 545pm (summer time) - by 6pm we have to home feeding the sprog.

Nice shot, Ravi - as for the shift in contrast: I noticed that your first picture is in Adobe RGB (1998) color space, a profile that is simply omitted when saving it for web uses. To avoid the shift, convert the color profile to sRGB before exporting.

All web browsers are rubbish at displaying your colours, regardless of what colour space you convert to.

 

Yes and no: The browsers not supporting color management will display your files based on the local monitor profile, which normally doesn't deviate considerably from sRGB. So this is the best choice. If you use Adobe RGB or any other superior space on the web without converting the file to sRGB, you will have color shifts of another magnitude.

 

sRGB = domestic waste

any other, without converting = toxic waste :D
