Have you fiddled with the hue?

no, i haven't time to fiddle with the pictures other than a quick crop and resize.

is it too huey to you(y)?

Vin said:

No, I just can't believe anyone would paint their house that colour! And the burglar alarm looks a bit pink rather than red to me. You do invert pics as well, so fiddling with the hue would not be especially time-consuming.
Was the pic taken in Austria or the UK?

good point.

typically i only do things which are a single button in irfanview www.irfanview.com cropping, resizing, occasional black and white and inversion. very occasionally i'll kick something across to photoshop elements.

also, my computer monitor on my home PC is a bit rubbish too so even if things looked good on that then chances are they wouldn't on other PCs.

it was in england on the thursday before the bank holiday, i was on the way to a gig the night before the Reading festival kicked off.

and now i think about it, i have got the contrast turned up on one of my camera settings so it might be that. it was probably taken with higher than normal contrast using ISO 400.

i'm impressed vin. i never bother thinking about such things, let alone spotting them after the event.

there's still so much to learn ...

actually, it wasn't the contrast, it was saturation i'd turned up which makes more sense.

i do really know what's going on. honest.
