Would appreciate your comments on this picture of a Fox (sadly in captivity).
In particular I would appreciate if you could tell me if the colours look ok to you? I have recently purchased a new monitor and profiling it has been a bit tricky but I think I have got it to an acceptable state now.
Cheers
Rich.

I'm not usually a fan of 'portraits' but this is very nice. Exposure and colour look fine to me.

Hi Rich,
Welcome to the forum
Nice portrait of the Fox, to me there seems to be a slight magenta cast and the colours seem a bit dull.
I've tweaked the levels to get rid of the magenta cast and given it a wee touch of contrast via USM. I've maybe blown some of your marginal whites, but it's a small file and I'm just filling in time between prints
I'd check your monitor calibration again as even old colour-blind me can see a fairly strong magenta cast on your original.
Look forward to seeing more shots from you in the near future.

Back to the profiling then!
