2010/4/14 Tim Øsleby maritim...@gmail.com: So my screen may be a bit off, or I may be in a pink phase. Just got a chance to look at your PESO from a Lenovo T400 screen, and a Lenovo X61 screen. The greys look neutral on both of those, as well as on my ViewSonic desktop monitor at work. All of them uncalibrated, but at least in family with the screen of your laptop (TN panel). FWIW, I find it hard to get the WB right on my own laptop too. :-( Jostein -- http://www.alunfoto.no/galleri/ http://alunfoto.blogspot.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: PESO - Chaffinch
Nice shot of an attractive bird. The environment is perfect for him. I'm not wild about the negative vignetting. I think it makes the corners look a bit underexposed.

Re: PESO - Chaffinch
I like it. It's a rather messy background, but the lines of the trunks and twigs do somehow come together anyway. Great sharpness and pleasant pose. I find the beak against the darker background a more happy coincidence than do other commenteers. :-) But are you sure about the white balance? It brings out a lot of great colour in the bird, but the Platismatia lichen, the grey leaf-like one, (Papirlav) has a tint of pink on my monitor(s).

Re: PESO - Chaffinch
Thank you crew, for looking and commenting. Are you out of bricks? About the WB Jostein. To answer your question. I'm not sure about it. I got a comment about pink cast on my last PESO. So my screen may be a bit off, or I may be in a pink phase. I have just played a bit with WB. It looks a bit more correct when I turn it towards blue. But also duller. So it seems I just likes pink better than grey. Perhaps I'm parading in pink leather pants next year ;-) -- MaritimTim http://maritimtim.blogspot.com/ 2010/4/13 AlunFoto alunf...@gmail.com: I like it.
