Ooh. Ah. The grass is not your greatest problem here. Please refresh, I beg you.

Is the brightness accurate now?

Sure, just add a Hue/Saturation layer and go to "Greens". Then choose the little white eyedropper from the Hue/Sat panel, and click on some prominent green in your photo. Then it's merely a matter of fiddling with the three sliders to your (grotesque) taste. +40/+40/+65 looks completely hideous, so it's probably exactly what you want.

For.the.love.of.God. Have you, or have you not, followed my instructions? Not skimmed them, followed them? Every.single.word.

Right ... so where were you getting 55 from?

Please?

I need to understand what you mean by "lumen".

Right ... so ... troubleshooting ....

Some lab reviews here. Just bumping this question, in case you missed it.

HELL NO. Lightroom MUST be on sRGB. You can't control how other people print, so don't even think about it. It will give you nightmares. You just need to get your own house in order.

What setting are you on here? http://www.damiensymonds.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/cm06-1.gif

These instructions were correct. I fear you're WAY over-thinking the calibration process. Just follow my instructions, including troubleshooting, exactly.

No, you definitely need it on the Millers one, for as long as you persist with using them as your lab. (Hopefully not too much longer)

55 is really low. You shouldn't need to go that low.

No, the window you get when you go to View>Proof Setup>Custom in Photoshop.

No, just show me a screenshot of the Custom window.

Oh, no, shit, you must never use these settings. Put them back on "North America General Purpose 2" the way they should be. Stupid f*&king Millers.

Have you followed my instructions all the way through? Including the troubleshooting part? The Photoshop screenshot you attached is irrelevant. I need to see the Color Settings, not the Preferences. Can you elaborate on this?

Yeah, you'll need to use a low-opacity clone tool. I used 20%, I think.

Oh hell no. It must be PC.

Well, my part was just cloning.

Yes. Instructions

There has to be a bum crack. It'll look completely absurd without one.

Have you got good bulbs for your room yet? No they're not! Your prints are what they are. They never change. Either the light you're viewing them in is too warm, or your screen is too cold.

5000K lights should be good. How do you think their light compares to daylight? Yes, calibrate in dim light. But of course compare the prints to the screen in good light afterwards.
