Hi Mark, like the image very much. Feel that the shadows are a bit occluded. One more curve adj?
Or perhaps a bit more light on the water?
Just finished your sharpening tutorial and was able to incorporate some of your info into my workflow. Thanks.
Thank you John. And thank you for the feedback.
I have three main monitors I use, one is the Mac Thunderbolt 27 inch calibrated (iOne Display Pro) to 2.2 Gamma, 6500 White Point and 125 CD (brightness) which, in a mellow lit room, is pretty much an industry standard. Then I have my MacBook Pro running it, and that monitor I do not calibrate the colors (on purpose - because most viewers do not calibrate their monitors) but I do calibrate it for CD or Brightness only, and it is about the same, slightly brighter (130CD) and then I have a wide gamut PC monitor calibrated to the same web specs.
I am not sure about how to take the feedback here because although there are a few small areas in the water just starting to reach black, to my eye when I shot it, there was more. On all monitors, at least tonight as I look at them (maybe I'll feel quite differently tomorrow) it looks very much as I witnessed the scene but slightly better in tonal control (a little less clipping and more dynamic range). The scene had quite a lot of dark below due to the depth of the canyon.
So I just wonder if it is a monitor difference or a preferential difference.
But having said that, Thank You for the feedback and, for those who might like slightly brighter water BELOW is a new version brightened in both the blacks and the lights in the water.
Awesome about the my Video Tutorial helping you! Thank you for that feedback. I love it when I can help people.
Im curious what Video Tutorial are you referring to? The Web Sharpening Tutorial or the Fine Art Printing one?

Thank you very much!
Well, I have gone many different routes and they all vary. But the easiest one where I take clients in is a couple of miles both ways.
