I talked about it a bit in the second half of this article: https://www.damiensymonds.net/art_skin.html

Yes, but you have consistently proven that you have no concept of colour reality. I'm beginning to suspect some mild colour-blindness.

I don't understand the question, sorry. Obviously the first one is correct.

What? What on earth does that have to do with it?

When you buy such a huge camera, you have to be prepared to live with consequences such as this.

This is very normal, I'm afraid. You must have a heck of a big camera, and this is the price you pay.

That's right.

Well, please hurry. Your Raw Class is drifting away unused.

Only in cases of absolute desperation. If you find yourself in those dire straits, it really suggests that your monitor isn't very good.

Yes, but on the external monitor you have to check all of its available settings. You can't do that on a laptop.

How is it? A good print match? There are definitely differences in settings.

Oh, I'm so sorry, I meant to give you the link. https://macpaw.com/cleanmymac

No, absolutely not, I promise. It's very safe. Wonderful! Brian talked about the desktop thing at the bottom of this thread.

8GB of RAM is the bare minimum that Adobe recommends for running CC. You should be ok, but be aware that you won't be able to open too many photos into Photoshop or ACR at one time, or you'll find it starts to run slowly. For a computer of that age, you definitely should run a cleanup program. This one is widely recommended. Sorry to hear about your in-laws' health. Have you had a chance to do any shooting lately? If so, have you avoided putting the photos in Aperture, and instead browsed them with Bridge?

And? Which screen is a better match for your prints?

How did it go, @cathm?

Did you follow my exact calibration instructions? Remember there are different sets of instructions for your two different screens.

Yes. Your computer is smart enough to know when you plug it back in again, and it will remember that it is calibrated. Does that make sense? This is a really really really really really REALLY FUCKING BAD IDEA. Please read the very last paragraph in this article. You should have chosen two different names for the two different calibrations, yes. Do you remember what they were?

Holy crap!!!!!! https://ask.damiensymonds.net/topic/17263-scanner01/ It's astonishing that your computer even starts up. Also, this one: https://ask.damiensymonds.net/topic/22347-glary01/

I just woke up. Give me a few minutes to take a look at your screenshot.

That's just because you've been lucky up til now.

Yep, you'll learn about that at the beginning of the Layers & Masks Class. Let's not be hasty Finish the Bridge Class first.

PLEASE stop relying on other people's skills for your editing. https://www.damiensymonds.net/trainingraw.html

Now hold on. That's not a job for presets. That's a job for good clean processing. https://www.damiensymonds.net/2012/09/what-is-clean-processing.html
