Notsure if my images look too dark they look ok onmy monitor but when printed they look too dark.

The nightmere of printing
Is your screen calibrated, if not your screen could be too bright.

 

[luthy]

No not calibrated Gav I know 1 is too bright and I cant darken the other any more.

I gave up printing, I spent more time swearing at it

 

[luthy]

I dont print many tend to use them to check quality etc when I get them printed at a lab the levels seem to be the about right !!!!!

I went out with my nifty 35mm on my Fuji, which is progress, but didn't even get the camera out the bag...

 

[Gav.]

Still time hope you can find something.

Were you distracted too?

Only a little. Dull grey, mud, small river running high and no way down to waters edge. Nothing to photograph really. Today we ran out of time to set up 'my' shot.

Weather really is mucking up a few things at the minute.

Good luck.

There's your problem Lewis, your camera is in a bag.

 

[Gav.]

Done, I didn't want to play anyway

Still time to play if you've changed your mind

There's nothing but lines with the odd circle thrown in round your way, photo of the MK road map

If all else fails, I have a shoe horn "lined" up .... maybe

[Gav.]

You been shopping again?

I see you deleted flowers from the quote...

How did you know I don't bother with flowers??

 

[Paulie-W]

Because flowers die, and passion lives on

 

[Gav.]

I'll stop buggering about before I give myself a bad rep'

@ancient_mariner have you taken a guess and skipped to next months theme?

 

[ancient_mariner]

Finally managed to get more-or-less the entry I'd intended. I knew space would be tight, but just about managed to fit things in with my back hard against the wall at the bottom of the stairs. Also managed to jog a dial and shot the series at ISO50, with the results that only only a couple of frames were sharp enough to use. Thank goodness for IBIS.

Hope the humour isn't lost on the viewer.

If that is next month's theme can you confirm in advance so I can run it via the wife and get some time booked in lol

 

[Gav.]

@ancient_mariner great take on the theme

They always seem to use a mirror in the movies

 

[Gav.]

After seeing the last few images, I'm thinking Feb' should be a fun theme after all...


..... any ideas welcome.

 

[Cobra]

Pah! what do they know?
I tried it, but it kept sliding off the wall mounted mirror.
