Geez I hope not. I'd like to think you can be in next week.

You'll learn all about pop in the Levels Class. For their eyes, start with this: https://www.damiensymonds.net/tut_eyes.html

Now look at your photo, and the instagram one. Then think about what you said to me: Surely you can see that your photo is already nice and warm?

Oh crap! Your image is untagged again.

Terrific. Can you show me your photo with the crop you like?

Hold on ... you know how to crop, right?

Yay, I can see it, thank you. So can you tell me what aspect of these photos you wish to mimic?

No. Only two females.

Ok, the first link really isn't working for me. It must be on a page that isn't accessible to me. Any chance you could find another one?

Oh, wait. Is it the same photo at both links?

Sadly I can't see the first link. Can you check that you pasted it correctly?

@laural?

You assume correctly. But if you're shooting plenty loose, and there's no chance of losing anything important, you can still use it.

Sorry, I haven't kept files back this far.

Hi @Sara dubois, I've moved your question into Brian's area, because he's much more wise about these matters.

There is no hope for them, sorry

In my version I click on the cog to get it.

Hi @georgedave, You're right, monitors are usually at fault. Which Spyder did you get? Yes, definitely. You want your screen to match your dark prints, so that you'll KNOW how dark they are, and won't edit them so dark again. I hope this makes sense. Can you elaborate on this? Where does your gamma show as 2.5?

Amen.

Yes. There's some discussion about this at the end of the Bridge Class.

Good.

As soon as you've finished the Bridge Class, the Raw Class is the next one to take.

Those days are gone. From now on, you do all your editing by yourself, with my guidance.

This is definitely not true, I'm pleased to say. Your photos are great. Edit them properly, then give the full-resolution jpeg files to the client, and they'll be able to print them as big as a factory wall if they like.
