No luck here... I would actually like to learn how to retouch this without replacing with other baby's belly button... Is it possible?

Hi Damien!

So sorry I was gone for a while.... My kids finally started school (2 year old just started preschool) and I finally have my own time.

I am happy with how my monitor calibrates and would like to move forward.

Could you please let me know what's the next step?  Thanks!

 I Will do this when I get home today, thanks!  

After recalibrating it, instead of adjusting the custom color (no change in RGB), I adjusted the color temperature to match the print.

Do I have to recalibrate every time I manually adj my monitor 's color temp or custom color? 

What if I calibrate again and I still need to adjust the color template?   

Will do this when I get home today, thanks!

Yes, very.  Thank you for teaching this new skill.

Ok, I figured out why the monitor color was so off!  There is a button at the bottom of the monitor to choose Standard, ComfortView, Movie, Game, Color Temp., and Custom Color.

I changed to Custom Color and reduced blue (out of RGB) to 96% to match with my prints.

Now, the monitor colors match with my prints!  

Is it okay if I concentrate on the laptop first?

Hi! What is the best and easy way to edit these red spots on baby's skin?

As you can see in the comparison photo, Macbook Pro looks more red than the print and the Monitor looks cooler than the print.

One thing i noticed too is that my Macbook Pro color changes when I connect it to the monitor.  (to less red).

i think neither...

Yes, I feel like I’m back to square one... here is how my monitor, MacBook Pro, and my print from Bay Photo look like...

Hi Damien! I’m in Japan and will be here until 6/4. I will look for more outdoor images to post once I return. Thanks!

I will look for it.  Can the skin color be different?

I am having a hard time editing this umbilical cord....   I wanted to remove the black part but still look natural...

Or is it better to move the foot or cover it with the diaper cover?  

I hope you can help me, thanks!

Got it!

Sorry, I am confused...

1) I did Raw editing in Camera Raw before photoshopping the image.   Does it look like I didn't raw edit properly?

2) so post more outdoor photos for WB in your class other than the one I already posted?  Ideally, how many more should I post?  

I was afraid that you would say this

I can just replace the floor oart and not the background with hanging greens, right?

Here is without making the image darker.

Hi!  during the session, the parents stayed near this baby and left some jeans colored marks all over on this seamless paper.

I am wondering what is the best way to edit them out. without leaving any bandings.

I purposely made this image darker so that you can see the marks more obvious.

Thanks,

Cathy

Many thanks Damien! I am glad I asked you this!!

Hi Damien!  

I searched for the answer here, https://www.damiensymonds.net/tag/save-for-web but couldn't figure it out...

I am wondering when I save for web (after adding watermark for my clients, blogs, and social media), whether I would check 1) Progressive or  2) Optimized.

Could you please let me know?  Thanks!

Hi Damien!

What is the best way to fix this purple colored foot?   I have been using the action (following setting) but am not happy with it.

Please let me know, thanks!   

BTW, I hardly photograph outdoor but will go through my external hard drive to send you the image(s) soon.
