| The above picture was taken by a professional
photographer using an expensive professional camera. Just
because a professional photographer uses a professional
camera does not necessarily mean his pictures are ready
for publication. The image was licensed without color
correction. Just because a big business licenses images,
does not necessarily mean they are fit for publication
online. Note: The monitor used for correcting the above images was calibrated using ColorVision Spyder2Pro Studio: Professional Color Calibration System for CRT and LCD Displays. If the above images on the right hand side do not look better on your monitor, it has not been calibrated properly, and you need to get ColorVision or similar hardware before proceeding to the tutorials. Is your monitor calibrated properly? See the gretagmacbeth ColorChecker Rendition Chart to find out.
