Whats Your Right Photo Shade – Digital Cameras

Whats Your Right Photo Shade
MAricon Williams

Sometimes photos would appear a little frustrating especially when there is no transparency to match color. The reason to this is that printing companies have been slow in going with the flow to accommodate new images. They often stumbles through their conversions to CMYK which causes irreparable damage to the images.
In the article When Good Color Goes Bad by Mike Davis, it enumerated some tips on how to seize the full potential of your digital images. Davis advised to work with digital photographers who can supply the following:
1. FPO images for you to place in your layout plus the original raw files. These contain the virgin pixel captures straight from high-end digital cameras, prior to any conversion to RGB or any subsequent processing/encoding. You will need someone skilled to handle them, though.
2. Properly tagged RGB tiff images -- again, a skilled operator will be needed for best results.
3. CMYK tiffs prepared by a knowledgeable photographer. When feasible, separations should be prepared from the raw camera files, using the commercial printers own printing profile settings if available, or at very least using Photoshops "U.S. Prepress Defaults" with appropriate print environment settings i.e. coated, uncoated, Web, sheetfed, newsprint, ink density, etc..
Mike Davis, the author of the said article, is the founder of Colorprep. He specializes in making digital camera color separations look their best, serving printers, graphic designers and photographers. He is fully experienced with color preparation on any sort of printed work, be it adwork for publication, sheetfed commercial work, newsprint publications, as well as for backlit displays, outdoor boards, and the likes. In 1982, he underwent training at E. I. DuPont for direct screen color separations. In 1992 he joined Baltimore service bureau Graphic Detail, Inc. in order to get in on the upcoming digital revolution and say goodbye to rubylith, paste-ups and opaqueing. Lately Mike recognized the coming demise of film in commercial photography and the lack of qualified prepress operators able to bring out the full potential of the new digital camera images. After studying color management from a prepress operators viewpoint, Mike went solo in 2003. If you want help to achieve excellent colors in you prints, contact Colorprep. He can also be reached by calling 410 549-5564 or by visiting www.rgbcmyk.net.
Preferably, images should be scaled to your layout and sharpened for the specific print conditions. You may even ask for the full size CMYK or RGB tiffs without the final press sharpening or any significant press gain compensation for later use at other sizes.
To avoid discrepancies, deal only with prepress who understands the basics in color management, hardware calibrated displays and proper working environments. Skilled personnel secure the quality of your photos so you

Sphinx of Gizeh: Surprising Human FACE image in aerial photo – Site

Sphinx of Gizeh: Surprising Human FACE image in aerial photo
Ramon Ramonet Riu

I discover in Sterns aerial photo a new HUMAN FACE image carved very near of the Maadi hill, and also equidistant of the mysterious Sphinx of Gizeh. This proximity is very important. Its not a casuality because the causeway to the biggest pyramids there WAS NO OPEN, due the ancient wall at the queen Khenthawes "Pyramid Village".
In Gizeh plateau the causeway to the biggest pyramids remain closed ever since. So the face only was admired from the air About the necessary helicopter, or similar fly engine, see in GOOGLE writing: helicopter Abydos temple.
In this new Gizehs face see also a small mound in the middle of his front between "eyes" like the indian people decorate a red "Third Eye". By the way, perhaps is possible that the great orbits of its "eyes" are collapses due some hollow inside This signal point appears also in the Mt. Montserrat s face from a NASA photosatellite. So, all is more enigmatic yet.
With my new discovery in Gizeh, perhaps will be possible to help the ever supposed correlation between the most greater pyramids in Gizeh plateau and other several ancient monuments in the western Nile river Not only with the "Khenthawes Tomb", very near of the discovered FACE, but also with the Orion constellation called "The celestial Nile".
Between the Sphinx and Maadi formation appears this tranquil huge face in aerial view. Mechanical meteorization of stone or sand was not responsible for the apparition ofthis face never presented before me. Was carved in Gizeh plateau deliberately, without geomorphology intervention.
The same phenomenon reproduced by the last sun of the afternoon is drawed in several pictures fron Egypt ancient art. Similar phenomenon appears in the maya pyramid-temple of Chichen-Itz
