A very fundamental idea wandered my way on the topic of adjusting my digital photography work-flow for … anonymous (for lack of a better term) monitors. These monitors have not been adjusted by anyone, likely. Their settings typically would reflect little more than entropy. Do I care for all my work to look good on any monitor? I shouldn’t…it’s not worth my time. This explains why many photography web sites have a gray-scale on their doormat. If someone really wants to enjoy my photos, they need to adjust their monitor in order to appreciate any photo. Otherwise, I should only ever compose images in the Netscape color cube–256 colors.
Some basic monitor adjustment. And more basic monitor adjustment.
To enjoy your world more…please adjust your monitor.
