John 2000

This is a photo of a Pow Wow dancer friend of mine. The original is

in black and white. This one has been toned in PS, a process that Im

having problems with. Ill PS a photo to the tone I want. When I look

at it on another monitor Its totally wrong. For example my photo

Pow Wow Dancer 2001

is much too red brown on one monitor Ive

seen it on and too yellow on a second monitor. Has anyone got a

suggestion on how to resolve this? Id appreciate comments on the

tone of this shot. Tkxjim

Emotive, powerful portrait. It looks OK, albeit probably a bit too red caste on my monitor. Very hard to adjust colors and contrast across different platforms (MACs, PCs, etc.) I would error on the side of using less red and add a touch of yellow as well. Cropping may also be a bit narrow, IMHO.

Tints change from one monitor to the next. Synching your color with another computer's is tough. How well does it synch with your printer? The subject is a dramatic figure, but I don't find the lighting accentuating that potential.
