•  Support per Basile, except that I feel like it's just a photo shot in the early morning. Do you know what kind of tree it's perched on? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:23, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

• New version with exposure adjusted. Sorry; impossible for me to identify such a small part of a dead tree with no give-away leaves! Charlesjsharp (talk) 12:36, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

•  Comment Can you set the color space sRGB? --Laitche (talk) 16:09, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

• I have done, Laitche, switching my default RGB (in Photoshop CS6) to sRGB. Having looked up how to do it. I also found this online: "sRGB is the standard best suited to simpler needs, and Adobe RGB is ideal for advanced photography and printed works.' I've never been asked to do this before and have no idea of the implications. Many of my images are printed and I assumed RGB was ideal and printers convert to CMYK. I would like advice from others... Charlesjsharp (talk) 18:36, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

•  Comment Good point, Charles. sRGB provides the best color reproduction for display/publication in digital media. Adobe RGB, on the other hand, looks different in many browsers (desaturation, hue jumps). But Adobe RGB is the closest to the CMYK profile for professional printing in the publishing industry, because it improves the displayable color range, especially in the greens, blues, and cyans. Therefore, it is generally considered that Adobe RGB is more suitable for conversion to CMYK. Best regards, -- Radomianin (talk) 22:48, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
