I think artists are so very sensitive to colors and the subtle variations that it is harder for us to compromise anything when it comes to reproductions. I find it tortuous. But I remind myself that in certain circumstances I need to not be quite sooooo critical, lest I drive myself completely bonkers. If this were an art reproduction print for sale, I would be having kinniptions to make sure the color was smack on the money. Since it isn't, I decided to just go with it and not give myself ulcers.<br /><br />Watercolors are hard to reproduce...as I looked at your blog. In their case, it is the intensity issue. The transparent qualities tend to make them come across much lighter than the originals. The camera or scanner picks up the light underneath the colors and washes them out. Tough to overcome that. Good luck with your work!Cheryl Passhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01894307477506374497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34221725.post-52404461602622063602010-07-22T06:11:13.169-02:002010-07-22T06:11:13.169-02:00Thank you so much for this post!

I have tried using Windows Live, Picasa, Picnik and Roxio Photo Suite.. and your post re Photoshop has made me realise, it might just be one of those impossible tasks! <br /><br />Even though bluer than the original, it is still a beautiful postcard and I hope it brings you much success :)Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01344072012837774958noreply@blogger.com
