My camera is always within reaching distance of me! Photini has made sure of that!


:thumbsup:

I took on the task last night of starting to learn how to post-process skin tones. Ey ey ey! It helps though that I found a theory that is somewhat mathematical about how cyan, magenta and yellow should be balanced. I take a great deal of comfort in numbers..and it allows me to be certain that I am in the ballpark and not just guessing. Once I'm in the ballpark range, I feel more comfortable trusting my eyes.

Of course, this all leads me to the realization that I need my monitor calibrated. I can't afford it now, but maybe this Fall.

That is not cheap. I have not even thought about learning how to do crazy things like adjusting skin tones and all in my pics.

It can get super expensive. But there is some very decent calibration software available for around $100 or so. I think that's pretty reasonable. In the meantime I think a gray card will help a great deal.

$100 is not bad. I am going to want a bigger monitor if I get too involved in this stuff!


I will check those out! :thumbsup:

If anyone has some good Orthodox hymns they could post here: http://www.christianforums.com/t7459015/

There's a poor guy who looks fed up a bit by Contemporary Christian music, I'm not sure if he's really even considered traditional chant as a possibility. I posted a few, maybe some of you with a wider knowledge base and good Youtube examples could help him out? :sorry:
