Re: Patagonia's carretera austral: two photographers and thre...
Thanks David and Jochen for your feedback. I think there are aspects of this:
1. If you don\'t use a calibrated screen, images can look completely different.
2. My images look on a non colormanagement browser like IE very different compared to LR. On browsers with color management like Firefox the difference is much smaller. In LR (and Firefox) my images look much less contrasty and saturated compared to IE. After my first download to flickr I deleted all images images, adjusted contrast, blackpoint and exposure again on every image and downloaded them again for the use with IE. Still they look on LR much better, but I find them now at least acceptable on IE.
3. Everybody has of course a different taste regarding contrast and saturation of images. I don\'t want to be as realistic as possible with my images, but instead want to express the feelings I had when I was in this situation shooting this image. For example when I was looking at the red and orange trees in reality my strong feeling was, that I had never ever seen such intense colors in nature before. And this impression I wanted to transmit through my images.
But again thanks for the feedback, it is good to know, that not everybody likes this approach.
