Brent Halstead replied to Amanda Arms's discussion 'Weekly Editing Fun #2'
There was some cropping, color correction, saturation boosting in Aperture and a round trip through Photoshop to do a little touchup to the ball.

I just did some color correction and white balance adjustments in Aperture. I didn't want to crop anything since my assumption was to keep as much of the dress as possible.

Brent Halstead replied to Jacob Zimmer's discussion 'Internet Removing Color Saturation'
There are a few issues that you're dealing with, and all are out of your control. First, browser support. IE doesn't support color profiling. I'm not sure about Chrome. Firefox does but it's turned off by default. Safari does and…

Brent Halstead replied to Jacob Zimmer's discussion 'Is it acceptable for Wedding Photos to be over-exposed?'
That seems to be the look-of-the-moment that I'm tired of seeing, I think some people are getting plug-in happy to try and look different. The casual "S curve" has become overdone and I'm of the (meager) opinion that when we look…

Brent Halstead replied to Don Lehman's discussion 'CyberSyncs or Pocket Wizards ???'
Why not go real cheap and get a speedlite transmitter (STE 2 I think)? For approx. $200 you can control every Canon flash you have with no flash attachment needed. It's a lot easier to carry too, I leave my PW at home all the time, as I'm…

Brent Halstead replied to Ryan Armbrust's discussion 'FLAKEY PHOTOGS!'
*raises hand* Guilty. Had I known I was going to be traveling so much these past three weeks I'd have passed on this project, even though I've been looking forward to it since barely missing the last one. Poor Charles is a victim to my…

Brent Halstead replied to Michael Tigue's discussion 'Monitor Calibration'
Ooh we could go deep with this too. How about coloring your surroundings with neutral 18% gray and using balanced lights behind the monitor as the only ambient light being generated. And, limiting the amount of foreign substances (ie. caffeine…

Brent Halstead replied to Michael Tigue's discussion 'Monitor Calibration'
Yep, Jacob is right. And not only are no two (uncalibrated) monitors alike but most browsers don't respect imbedded profiles by default. Firefox supports them, but that needs to be turned on and most people don't know/care to do that.…

Brent Halstead replied to Michael Tigue's discussion 'Monitor Calibration'
I've got an I1 spectrophotometer (work supplied) and it's awesome. BTW don't be shocked after you calibrate your monitor the first time, it takes the color saturation and brightness way down. Trying to get an object with its own…
