I'm confused. Did you find a better scanner to scan it? Or did you take a raw photo of it?

Have you read this? https://www.damiensymonds.net/scanning-guidelines-for-old-photo-restoration/

Bummer Do you have a desktop screen you can plug in to the laptop?

No, not relevant in any way at all.

Can you remove the calibration profile and go back to default? How close to your prints is that?

Honestly, maybe it's good news. A calibrator is a lot cheaper to replace than a Macbook.

It's funny, you're the third person who posted about this in the last 24 hours! Glad you found it.

Hi Teekay, I guess the first step is to check if the calibrator itself isn't faulty. Is there another computer you can calibrate to see if the same problem appears?

Yes.

Be careful. Remember that "what you like" is utterly irrelevant. Your calibrated screen must match ALL your prints, not just your favourite ones. So you've got a good calibration and print match with your other computer?

Yeah, that should be right. So you're up to this page now, yes?

Please let's not waste any more time with this for now. How far through the Raw Class are you so far?

You forgot #4 in the guidelines.

Just to check, which setting did you choose here?

The best in the business, I promise: https://www.damiensymonds.net/trainingraw.html

@wolfpack3?

Talk to me, @wolfpack3. In what way does your screen differ from your prints? What screen do you have, and which calibrator?

Fuck. Then no, sorry.

Oops, sorry, can you do the raw processing on your photo (don't forget the noise removal) then post the 100% crop again for me?

It should be possible, yes. May I see your face up close? https://www.damiensymonds.net/2013/09/grabbing-700x700px-100-crop.html

Yep, levels now.

Great job.

Because she converts them to sRGB first, I assume. Hopefully your printer is sensible enough to make the conversion themselves.

It will be easier if you just do it, and don't tell her. https://www.damiensymonds.net/art_tscs2.html

Yeah, darn, you're right It's all of them I know you've already done the right thing and sought permission from the photographer to edit a pimple. Do you feel obliged to ask their permission to fix the colour space on ALL of the photos? I'm really sorry you're in this situation. Your photographer is an idiot
