on this website has been corrected to match the original fine art photographic slide as closely as possible. However, a digital photograph's colour and tone will change from one computer monitor to another. To view the photographs on this site similarly to how they were intended, adjust your monitor by following these four steps:
Step 1:
To view the photographs at their intended size, set your screen resolution to "1024 x 768 pixels". This is usually done by adjusting the monitor's display properties in your operating system. If this setting is unavailable, choose the closest setting. A higher resolution works well; a lower resolution will truncate some photographs.
Step 2:
To view the photographs without colour casts, set your monitor's colour setting to the "normal" preset. This is usually done using buttons on the front of the monitor. Some monitors do not have colour settings - if yours doesn't, it is probably set this way by default.
Step 3:
To view the full tonal depth of the photographs, adjust your monitor's brightness and contrast settings until you see 24 distinct rectangles in the image below. The first and last rectangles should merge with the bar on the top and the bar on the bottom, respectively. Some monitors will not allow viewing of all 24 rectangles. If in doubt, choose the brighter, higher contrast setting.
Step 4:
If you are using a flat panel display, adjust your monitor until you are looking at it squarely. Looking up at your monitor will darken a photo, while looking down at your monitor will brighten it. Looking at your monitor from the side will give the photo a yellow colour cast.
You should now be able to accurately view the photographs on MarkRaymondMason.com. Keep in mind that all web photos have major limitations and cannot match the detail, colour range, or tonal depth of an original fine art photographic print. Enjoy my photography galleries!
