So I'm not sure if this is a print issue or a post-production issue, but I've just recently started having some issues with prints from my lab.
I have no idea what the right word is for this problem, but my prints are coming back with any highlight/light areas quite blown out. It's also highlighting any imperfections (which are barely noticeable on screen - I think it's called artefacts but not sure) on solid colour backgrounds (blankets etc).
I've attached an example. First a phone screen shot of the print itself, along with the edited jpeg that I sent off to my lab.
Is this something I am doing wrong? If I zoom into the image I can see the problem, but the prints seem to come back amplifying it. The feedback from the lab was the make sure any levels work is done first to avoid this type of issue.
Thanks for your help.
